Sustainability is central to how we do business, essential to our global cocoa bean sourcing strategy, and vital to improving the livelihoods of farmers and their communities.
Our ambition is to accelerate progress towards a transparent global cocoa supply chain, to enable farmers and their communities to achieve better incomes and living standards, and to deliver a sustainable supply of cocoa and chocolate products. Our commitment – the Cargill Cocoa Promise – is making a real and lasting difference to farmers and their communities.
