Traceability

From farm plot to bag

Buyers and export markets increasingly need to know exactly where cocoa was grown. We keep records that link every lot back to its farmers and plots.

How it works

Our traceability chain

  1. Farmer registration

    Each supplier is registered once with name, ID, village and cooperative, if any.

  2. Plot mapping

    Farm plots are geolocated, in line with Cameroon’s national programme for farmer registration and plot geolocation.

  3. Purchase record

    Every purchase records the farmer, plot, weight, grade, date and buying centre.

  4. Lot tracking

    Bags are grouped into identified lots, so each lot can be traced back to the purchases it contains.

Why it matters

Ready for deforestation-free markets

The EU Deforestation Regulation (EU) 2023/1115 requires cocoa sold into Europe to be traceable to its plot and produced without deforestation after 31 December 2020. Cameroon is building a national traceability system with the CICC, FODECC and ONCC.

  • We do not buy cocoa from protected areas or forest reserves
  • Our own farm plots are recorded and mapped
  • Supplier data is used only for traceability and compliance

Your data is protected. Farmer and purchase records are kept in our internal management system and are never published on this website.
