More Money For Cocoa Farming Families

We’re paying our farmers new incentives, directly to their pockets. For good practices for them and their communities.

As we start to use cocoa from the income accelerator programme across our products, you’ll see messaging to highlight this on some of our range from 2023, with the roll out to more products in 2024.

More Trees Planted

We're training cocoa farmers to prune their trees and plant a wider variety of native species. Happier plants, healthier planet.

Helping Kids Into School

We're helping cocoa-farming families send their children to school, and keep them learning and thriving.

More Sustainably Grown Cocoa

We're incentivising good practices in cocoa farming communities, paid directly into the families' pockets.
