Fairtrade Chocolate from Callebaut

Callebaut’s four classic recipes are now also available as Fairtrade certified, extending the benefits of Fairtrade to more farmers.

Callebaut’s four classic recipes – 811 (dark), 823 (milk), W2 (white) and 70-30-38 (dark) – are the preferred choice of confectioners, pastry chefs and chocolatiers all over the world. They have become global standards, often copied but never equalled in taste, flavour, quality and workability. The new range of Callebaut Fairtrade certified chocolates offer customers the opportunity to develop new artisanal products with Fairtrade certified chocolate.

As part of its Fairtrade marketing program, Callebaut will provide customers with promotional Point-of-Sale materials, including posters, doorstickers and brochures, so you can communicate your commitment to work with Fairtrade certified chocolate at your Point-of-Sale.

Juergen Steinemann, CEO Barry Callebaut: “As the global leader in cocoa and chocolate, a focus on sustainability is an imperative for our company, not an option. For a long time now we are actively engaged in origin countries by working together with farmers and cooperatives directly and at the same time we have been involved in various initiatives and projects, all contributing to a more sustainable cocoa supply chain. Our association with Fairtrade for example goes back many years and we are proud to be a Fairtrade preferred supplier of certified chocolate.”

Olivier Schucht, Vice President Gourmet at Barry Callebaut: “In the recent past, we increasingly received requests for certified products from Gourmet customers across the globe. The move to offer the four Callebaut classics also in a Fairtrade variety has been welcomed by chocolatiers and pastry chefs worldwide. They are delighted that it is now so easy for them to offer artisanal products containing Fairtrade chocolate and to communicate about it to their customers.”
