SUPPORTING SUSTAINABLE CACAO
OUR GOALS
-
Deforestation-free
-
Carbon Reduction
-
Empowered women
Farmers and chefs, together, we respect nature. All protectors of the diversity and intensity of cacao flavours, we want to achieve one common purpose "Express Your True Nature". That's why Cacao Barry joined Cocoa Horizons, focusing on 3 key areas, close to our hearts.
Cocoa Horizons is an impact-led program focused on cocoa farmer prosperity, and the empowerment of farming communities to protect and promote nature, children and human rights.
OUR ACTIONS
Our 3 objectives are intertwined and all supported by our actions.
-
Forest restoration
In 2021, we started a forest restoration project in Côte d'Ivoire, in the Agbo forest, where we contributed to the restoration of 300 hectares of forest. -
Agroforestry
It enables farmers to promote biodiversity, improve cacao yield, reduce pest and diseases, provide an additional source of income and sequester carbon. In 2023, 12,000 hectares are being implemented. -
Women empowerment
Promotes women's empowerment approach, build self-confidence and offer financing solutions for members. In 2023, almost 40 000 women are registered Cocoa Horizons farmers.
