A Heart for Sustainable Chocolate

Van Houten works hard to put sustainability back on the menu. Through Cocoa Horizons, supervised by the Swiss Federal Foundation Authority, we are helping farmers build self-sustaining cocoa communities that protect nature and their children.

With training, financial incentives, and empowerment programs, Van Houten aims to make cocoa an attractive crop that enables communities in Africa and Latin America to thrive.

Cocoa Horizons Aims to Deliver Better Cocoa, through 3 Areas:

Productivity: Helping farmers succeed in their everyday work. Helping them grow their business and improve their livelihoods.

Communities: We have a zero-child labor policy and actively make sure all cocoa farming communities are trained to protect their children.

Environment: Harvesting chocolate in a way that gives back to our planet. We are sequestering our carbon.

Together with Cocoa Horizons, we are leading the industry toward sustainable cocoa farming practices. The Cocoa Horizons Foundation is an impact-driven program with a vision to promote cocoa farmer prosperity by creating self-sustaining communities that protect nature and children. It is a highly transparent, third-party verified non-profit organization.
