Organic

Certified organic foods are produced according to federal standards set by the USDA National Organic Program. Requirements vary from country to country, and generally involve a set of production standards for growing, storage, processing, packaging and shipping. Organic standards address many factors: soil quality, animal raising, pest and weed control, and use of input materials.

Sustainable Origins

All our sustainability programs are designed to support farmers and help ensure their economic viability while also safeguarding social objectives such as advancing the access to primary education to contribute to the overall reduction of child labor. We implement these programs with partners who have a profound knowledge of the countries within which they operate and possess the staff and infrastructure to make the programs effective. More here.

UTZ Certified Cocoa

In January 2018, UTZ merged with Rainforest Alliance. The two certifications are joining forces in response to the critical challenges facing humanity: deforestation, climate change, systemic poverty, and social inequity. They combine their respective strengths to build a future in which nature is protected and biodiversity flourishes; where farmers, workers, and communities prosper; and where sustainable land use and responsible business practices are the norm.
