Sustainable Sourcing

Vision Commodities actively participates in helping cocoa farmers through its various certifications in sustainable sourcing of social and environmental responsibility, such as Organic, Fairtrade and Rainforest Alliance. These are so far the best tools that Vision Commodities has to promote and convey its conviction to contribute to sustainable cocoa farming and to build a sustainable supply chain.

Additionally, Vision Commodities travels and encourages its clients to escort them on direct periodical visits to cocoa farmers, to make sure that the premiums paid, under the aforementioned frameworks, are making a difference and serving the farmers to see a future in growing cocoa. Vision Commodities has acquired a conscience that it is vital to its business to ensure this takes place. The reason is very simple: no cocoa beans, no cocoa products, no chocolate! At the same time this enables Vision Commodities to play its part in tackling poverty and preserving good environmental practices.

Vision Commodities also wholeheartedly supports international trading houses as well-qualified suppliers of cocoas where they have a local presence and proprietary sustainable initiatives.
