Cocoa Sourcing

"People are increasingly interested in the origins of their food and asking more questions about how farmers in developing countries are treated. They want to know that farmers are paid well and their families protected."

What You Said

"You are the biggest chocolate manufacturer in Great Britain and you could make a difference."

Consumer, M. Suleman

"I have a general enquiry about Cadbury's buying practises and concern for the welfare of their suppliers. Does Cadbury have an ethical framework with regard to cocoa production?"

A Consumer

"I was wondering if the company has any fair trade policy in place and from which countries you purchase and if the land on which ingredients are grown has any level of sustainable management? With Thanks".

A Consumer

"I know that Cadbury now owns Green & Black's, but I was wondering if and when the company plans on extending the ethics of fair trade to the rest of your products?"

A Consumer

"I am doing a research project on Cadbury and I am hoping to find specific data on how much you pay for your cocoa (whether you'repaying average daily prices, premium prices, prices comparable to fairtrade, etc.)If you can share specific data about your payments, that wouldbe very helpful."
