Cacao-Trace is Puratos’ sustainable cocoa sourcing programme that focuses
on better tasting chocolate, and in the process creates value for all, from farmer
to consumer. Chocolate is obtained from the highest quality beans, fermented
and dried according to strict guidelines. The programme was initiated in 2014
and now counts 8,867 farmers from 7 cocoa producing countries.
Income creation through
taste improvement
The chocolate industry traditionally approaches
sustainability with productivity, Cacao-Trace stands
out by focusing on taste improvement. This creates
more income for both farmers and chocolatiers.
Fermentation expertise
through training
Together with our local fermentation experts, we
train our farmers and help them monitor and
improve the fermentation process to produce
cocoa beans of superior quality.
Taste improvement through
fermentation expertise
At Cacao-Trace we master the fermentation process to
ensure our chocolate and cocoa-based products have a
Great Taste. Doing Good is our focus so Cacao-Trace
farmers benefit from the value they create.
A unique chocolate bonus for farmers
and their communities
The lives of our cocoa farmers are enhanced by
a unique Chocolate Bonus; for every kilo of
chocolate you buy, €0.10 goes straight back to
farmers and their communities.
Our network of post-harvest centres covers seven cocoa producing countries in the world:
Cameroon, Ivory Coast, Mexico, Papua New Guinea, Philippines, Uganda and Vietnam.

We launched our Cacao-Trace program in 2014 because we wanted to develop our own
approach for better control of the cocoa chain with the aim of creating a sustainable
win-win for all parties involved. We truly believe that creating a better chocolate together
is the only way to sustainability. We are committed to continuous investments in
sustainable cocoa and increase our network of post-harvest centres on a yearly basis.
Our Cacao-Trace program has been validated by independent, third-party certification.
