Sustainability is not just a trend;
it’s a responsibility.
Sustainability is not just a trend; it’s a responsibility. At Defifoods, we are dedicated to supporting innovative new methods that prioritize environmental stewardship and social equity, ensuring that cacao growing remains viable and thriving for generations to come.
Our goal is to deliver superb tasting, clean-label innovative products. It is you, our customers, that will guide us on options you’d like to see in your finished products such as Organic, Non-GMO, Fair Trade, Vegan, Kosher or other accreditation or certification.
We take great effort to ensure ingredients claiming to be socially responsible are in fact responsibly sourced in a way that respects farming communities and helps preserve our environment. Visits to cacao farms in Colombia, Ivory Coast have taken place to meet the farmers and their families. Sustainable packaging options are constantly being researched and made available for our customers to select from.
Our passion is chocolate, but we are also dedicated to fostering a healthy and responsible food culture with products created by a caring, well trained, and supported production team that take pride in the job and products they help create, products they would happily share with their own families and friends.
Defifoods has taken the next step in aiding global sustainability as a proud buyer and participant of sustainable practices. As we source bulk chocolate from several trusted suppliers, it gives us the flexibility to offer you various socially responsible and sustainability programs where you can choose to participate.
By adopting techniques such as regenerative agriculture, we are working to restore ecosystems, enhance soil health, and promote biodiversity, all while ensuring that our farming methods contribute positively to the land. Together, we can create a chocolate industry that is both delicious and long lasting , honoring the rich heritage of cacao while safeguarding our planet’s future.
At Defifoods, we have a strong segment of our product development team that is dedicated to sourcing top-quality beans, ensuring they come from farms that use sustainable agriculture and agroforestry methods – such as intercropping, agroforestry systems, no-tilling, and innovative methods for disease prevention without the use of pesticides and herbicides. We are committed to maintaining an ethical supply chain and fostering long-term partnerships that enhance farmers’ incomes and improve their living conditions.
By sourcing from our trusted suppliers, we actively contribute to a sustainable supply chain that prioritizes real value at the source—enhancing farmer income, promoting the social well-being of local communities, and fostering environmentally responsible practices.
