Farmer groups we work with

Having teams present in the field has helped us to better understand the farmers that grow our cocoa. These cocoa craftsmen provide us with a raw product that’s sustainably sourced, and fully traceable from farmer to warehouse. Meet some of the farmer groups we work with.
