THIS CHOCOLATE SOURCES SUSTAINABLE COCOA

The cocoa beans for our chocolate are bought as much as possible directly from farmer cooperatives. This way, the farmers earn a better price for their crops, can invest in their farms and improve their livelihoods.

For each YummyComb chocolate you buy, Cocoa Horizons reinvests a part in farmer training  and farming tools to elevate farmers into experts. With their crops, we can continue bringing you superior taste. And in turn, they make a better living out of cocoa farming.

THIS CHOCOLATE MAKES EVERYONE WIN

We source cocoa sustainably: for every bag of beans we buy, we reinvest part in farmer training and coaching. This way, cocoa farmers become better farmers, make a better income and can keep soiling us with great taste.

GREAT FOR TASTE. FAIR FOR FARMERS

Part of the revenue of this chocolate goes back to farmers. It is invested in training programmes and tools for cocoa farmers to become better craftsmen. And better beans means better taste, and a better price for their crop.

THIS CHOCOLATE EMPOWERS WOMEN FARMERS

Part of the revenue of this chocolate is invested in training programmes for women in West Africa. These programmes empower women in turning their entrepreneurial dreams into real business and become successful cocoa farmers. In turn, these women-farmers become financially independent and can support their families better.

Naomi struggled to comfortably provide for her family. Three years ago, determined to change her story, Naomi joined the Cocoa Horizons program where she made use of the agroforestry training module to gradually transform her farm and her finances. Today, not only does she proudly harvest higher quality cocoa but other food crops like cassava and plantain to sell for extra income and feed her family. She also works as a purchasing clerk at one of the biggest cocoa buying centres in her district. Naomi is a force to reckon with in her community with further ambitions to expand her financial independence.

“Supporting a family with 3 kids used to worry me; getting them a proper education, keeping them healthy. The moment I learned how to become more independent, was the moment I became stronger”

– Naomi – Cocoa Farmer

Trust starts at the source: with the farmers of our cocoa beans. That’s why we work with sustainable chocolate – crafted in Belgium.

Great food starts with knowing and trusting the people behind it. The people who grow the ingredients and respectfully work with nature, the chefs who make the best out of every dish. Our chocolate is made with cocoa beans grown by thousands of farmers around the equator. To guarantee that the farmers thrive, get the best out of their crops and earn a fair price for their crop, we make a choice for sustainable Belgian chocolate.

Our chocolate maker builds partnerships with local farmer cooperatives. By siding with the farmers and passing on know-how about modern farming techniques, they grow better beans. By buying the beans directly from the cooperatives, the farmers earn a better income. And by raising awareness around child labour and empowering them to send their kids to school, you can fully trust this chocolate and enjoy its great taste without any bitterness.
