Cocoa Promise in Action
At Cargill Cocoa & Chocolate, we believe that improving the lives of cocoa farmers goes hand-in-hand with our business success – and the success of the sector as a whole. While we are proud of the progress we are making, there is still much to do. To achieve a fully sustainable cocoa sector, we’re going to have to learn faster, try harder, and go further – together.
The Cargill Cocoa Promise is implemented in various ways in our origin countries – Ghana, Cameroon, Brazil, Indonesia and Côte d’Ivoire – matching farmer and community needs and the local circumstances of the sector.
See how we’re already making a concrete impact in our five origin countries.
How we are helping women by advancing gender equality in the cocoa sector
When women have more opportunities and support, family nutrition, children’s education and family incomes go up, while social such as child labor and environmental risks go down.
Agroforestry keeps forests and cocoa-growing communities strong together
Cargill and PUR Projet have been collaborating for the past three years to help advance agroforestry concepts in communities such as Bossoha in Côte d’Ivoire.
