Empowering Cocoa Farmers
At Cacao-Trace, we are committed to empowering cocoa farmers through three key areas: better income, better education, and better health.
-
Better Income: The primary challenge in the cocoa supply chain is farmer poverty, the root cause of many issues. Cacao-Trace guarantees better income for farmers through the Quality Premium and Chocolate Bonus, providing an additional 2 to 5 months of income annually. Our long-term volume commitment ensures a stable partnership with Cacao-Trace farmer communities.
-
Better Education: We support farmers’ families by building schools, canteens, and toilets, and by creating the right educational environment with school kits for children.
-
Better Health: We prioritize better health conditions by installing facilities to ensure access to drinkable water and constructing maternities in the communities.
Preserving the Planet
To build a sustainable cocoa chain, we address deforestation and restore biodiversity by promoting good agricultural practices, increasing productivity, and investing in agroforestry. We aim to lower our environmental footprint and support regenerative agriculture. We ensure full traceability and compliance with environmental regulations, protecting endangered forests and fostering a sustainable future for cocoa farmers and their communities.
