At Dr. Oetker, we purchase around 8,500 tonnes of cocoa every year – enough to make millions of brownies, chocolate sprinkles and icing.
We are aware of our responsibilities towards people and our planet and therefore our goal is to source 100% certified cocoa for use in our products. That is why we source Rainforest Alliance Certified cocoa. The Rainforest Alliance is an international non-profit organization working together with farmers, businesses, consumers and others.
Today we are already sourcing Rainforest Alliance Certified cocoa* for most of our products, so we’re not only supporting our commitment to 100% deforestation free supply chains by 2025, we're helping improve livelihoods in the communities we impact too.
* newly acquired brands/companies get a transition period of three years to phase out existing contracts with suppliers
The cocoa industry faces social, economic, and environmental challenges. Climate change, deforestation, low income and poor working conditions are among the issues affecting cocoa farmers and nature.
The Rainforest Alliance is working to tackle these issues and move towards a more sustainable cocoa sector.
In more detail, Rainforest Alliance Certified cocoa means…
… improving sustainable livelihood opportunities for farmers, workers, and their families.
…training farmers to grow better crops using climate-smart agriculture, which help them mitigate and adapt to climate impacts.
…promoting more sustainable land management practices to protect forests, biodiversity, and natural resources.
…addressing human rights abuses like child and forced labor, low wages, poor working conditions, and gender inequality.
Keep an eye out for the Rainforest Alliance frog seal, whenever you’re shopping. Simply by choosing a Rainforest Alliance Certified cocoa/product, you can be confident you’re supporting farmers that look after their workers and protect our natural resources.
