The only thing that could make a warm cup of hot chocolate ever better? Doubling down on the cocoa with a dark chocolate mix.
Sustainable goodness
For Equal Exchange, farmer fairness is a top priority, in addition to being one of the largest worker-owned cooperatives in the United States.
How it does good
A closer connection between people and farmers
The tea, cocoa, and coffee farming industries are at the highest risk for worker exploitation and contributing to deforestation. For standard brands, these supply chains are notoriously lacking in transparency. That’s why Equal Exchange created a fair trade model that cuts out the middleman. Instead, they focus on direct, transparent trade with farmers and cooperatives. They work in collaboration with Root Capital and other organizations to help build farmer cooperative training programs. A USAID partner, Equal Exchange is heavily engaged in farmer cooperative capacity development, bringing technical assistance to in-country growers to help increase productivity, reliability and ultimately success in a global market.

responsible sourcing
By using fair and direct trade practices along with organic farms, Equal Exchange makes sure their supply chains are creating a better place for people and the planet.

United StatesThis cocoa is sexy like red wine. I don't like sweet very much, but I love warm, rich cocoa. Its a really balanced cocoa and a great relaxing warm and a great cup after dinner because its not irritatingly sweet instead its mellow, delicious and the pleasant cocoa bitters are balanced perfectly.
