Making chocolate is an art.We pursue a policy of direct trade with farmers in accordance with the principles of Fair Trade.We do everything in our power to ensure that the conditions in which our cacao is grown allow planters and their families to develop a long-term business strategy. We take particular care to ensure no children work in the production of our cacao, that there is no forced labor and that all national and international labor regulations are respected.
