“Sourcing sustainably grown cocoa from smallholder farmers is the core of our business. Farmforce gives us and our customers security and certainty in the sustainable origin of our cocoa by providing bag level traceability back to individual certified farmers. With the Farmforce platform we can digitally capture cocoa purchases from specific farmers including real time management of certified quotas to ensure that Rainforest Alliance and UTZ certified cocoa is grown to their high standards. This digital transparency allows us to differentiate our cocoa and ensure its credibility.”
