THE CSR CEMOI GROUP’S POLICY

A NEW ERA OPENS FOR 21ST CENTURY ‘S COCOA

Our goal is to strengthen a value chain where everyone wins: the producer, us, the processors, our customers, our employees. For the past years, we have chosen to go even further in further in bringing our business model into line with our values. By implementing the TRANSPARENCE CACAO approach, the chocolate-maker CÉMOI enlightened the way and demonstrated that it was possible to work towards a global cocoa quality where the socio-environmental quality of production benefits the aromatic quality of the product.
