Investing in the Environment

We believe in supporting agroforestry. That means managing the land in a way that helps conserve and protect natural resources, not clearing the land to make way for cattle or monocropping — a harsh reality for the world’s rainforests.
 
When agroforestry is put into action, this sustainable farming method combines cocoa trees with diverse plants like fruit and timber trees, enriching soil fertility, boosting biodiversity, and creating a resilient ecosystem. It ensures the land thrives for generations, supporting the global movement against climate change.

“Our commitment starts with the soil beneath the cocoa trees — nurturing the land to protect the future.”

Investing In Equipment

We empower farms to boost productivity with improved tools and technology. Quality cocoa production depends on having access to the right technologies and tools for the job. We work closely with farmers, getting to know their gaps in technology and equipment needed to operate efficiently and sustainably.

It might sound simple, but these tools and equipment can go a long way in improving the quality and output of cocoa farms — meaning more income and better conditions for their communities. We discover the sticking points and offer direct support to build what’s needed.

Supporting Business Growth 

We support farms in expanding their global reach and to achieve greater profits through knowledge sharing, marketing efforts and new revenue streams.
 
We do whatever is within our power to connect farmers to a global network by providing them with market access, contacts, information, and new opportunities to grow and succeed. Our business development and knowledge-sharing efforts empower farmers to claim a larger share of industry profits through value-added initiatives.

Profit Sharing

Sharing cocoa creations is our passion, supporting farmers is our foundation. There’s no clearer way we reflect this dual purpose than through our circular profit sharing scheme, powered by our farmer recipes.

The way it works is simple. You make a cocoa purchase inspired by reading a farmer-gifted recipe, and we reinvest a portion of the profits into that farmer’s sustainability microproject. Promoting the use of the raw ingredient means more value can be sent their way.

As a young brand, this system is something we’re building upon and a core part of our mission. The wheels are in motion. The more The Cocoa Circle powers your baking, the faster they turn.

Social Impact

A more connected community within the cocoa industry makes for stronger farms and a better use of resources. We help to foster a stronger industry communities, locally and globally, by developing networks and encouraging collaboration.

Each time we make a trip to our partner farms, this acts as a core part of our mission. Cocoa farmers and their conditions are at the core of our message. They influence everything we do. We empower others to help us help them.

Spreading Awareness

 We believe knowledge is the key to change. Poverty among cocoa farmers due to low cocoa prices, child labour, deforestation and climate change are serious issues that plague the cocoa industry — but how can consumers help if they don’t know what’s going on?

We want to make lives sweeter, for everyone involved in cocoa, which starts with spreading the word of cocoa.
