Social Impact MAKING THE CACAO JOURNEY IMPACTFUL

Making the Cacao Journey Impactful We want to further demonstrate our commitment to creating a long-term positive impact on the lives of our partner farmers through community programs that address their needs, and potentially open new opportunities for their cacao and land.

Improved Cacao Farmer Program In the past year, we have taken our time to look at the journey of each of our cacao farmers to understand how we can improve our partnership. In doing so, we have made adjustments to the services and journey they can have as our official partners.

Auro Cacao Champion

As part of our mission, we want to go beyond with our partnerships and help empower and capacitate our partner farmers.Which is why we have started to rethink the journey we can offer to cacao farmers. Our new, revamped program now considers how we can help improve the performances of each of our partner farms with the help of our own cacao experts and agriculturists with better training, a quarterly assessment of their farms, productivity assistance, and programs that can help improve their quality of life. In addition, we want to honor or reward the farmers who perform well by hailing them as our Auro Cacao Champions.

Through our team of technicians and agriculturists, we conduct field visits and quarterly monitoring of the performances of the farms of our partners.They are rated according to a scorecard we have formulated to help understand the performance of each farmer.This data is shared with them as our team provides much needed advice for improvement of their farms. Those who are consistent and continuously improve are able to access more of our ongoing and upcoming community programs that can provide even more opportunities for them.

To recognize our farmers who have been doing an outstanding job and have been long-time cacao partners, we have launched a title to designate them as our Cacao Champion. By being one, they become our trusted partners that offer more opportunities for programs, and even become involved in the training or assessment program that we do. We aim to empower more farmers to become cacao champions and perhaps expand our cacao journey program to become even more impactful in the future.
