YOU!
Choc And Change
What a journey! The Dubble and Divine bars have finished their trek from bean to bar. The final piece in the chocolate chain is YOU! The choices you make when you reach for a chocolate bar have an influence all the way back through the chain to its very beginning, the cocoa farmer.
In the UK, we spend over £3.4 billion per year on chocolate! But less than 1% of these sales are made up of Fairtrade products. The farmers of Kuapa Kokoo in Ghana would love to sell all of their cocoa beans to Fairtrade companies, but there isn’t enough demand for Fairtrade chocolate... yet! You have power in your pocket to make a difference.
