BETTER REVENUES FOR FARMERS
The Quality Premium, paid directly to farmers in addition to the farm gate price has had a life-changing impact on the 15,273 farmers’ families who are part of the Cacao-Trace program.
BETTER EDUCATION AND HEALTH FOR THE COMMUNITIES
We’ve been able to ensure better education by building 3 classrooms in Davidkro and distributing 4,500 scholar kits to children. This initiative is part of our broader strategy to fight against child labor, which consists of five interconnected pillars you can discover in our Annual Report. We provided better health conditions for communities by building 1 maternity in Nero-Brousse and 12 new clean water towers.
We’ve also implemented equipment, processes, and training to support farmers in producing sustainable, great-tasting chocolate, as well as developing agroforestry that brings more biodiversity, better climate resistance, and new sources of income to communities.
These initiatives are just a few examples of how we’re committed to improving the lives of Cacao-Trace farmers. Join Belcolade in unlocking a sustainable future for the cocoa chain. Discover the 2022 Annual Report and take action toward a more sustainable chocolate industry.
