Traceability as a fundamental requirement.
Unfortunately, the journey of cocoa from being cultivated to being consumed as chocolate is full of exploitation, corruption, and violence around the world. It is our commitment not to be a part of such an unsustainable and unjust value chain. Therefore, we have taken traceability as one of the fundamental pillars of our supply chain.
Traceability means that at Le Vice, we can know who has harvested the cocoa beans used for chocolate production, and most importantly, under what conditions they did it. Unfortunately, most of the cocoa in the world is not traceable and may have been even grown by children working as slaves for bread and water. Traceability is the foundation for creating a fair and sustainable system that improves the conditions of farmers and guarantees the quality of the beans to produce better chocolate.
