Healthier farmers means stronger farmers. 💪❤️ Which is why we’re very excited to share that all the farmers we work with in Ghana ( their households!) will be receiving better healthcare, thanks to the Chocolonely Foundation Elucid. The program will include.. ☝️ enrollment in Ghana’s national health insurance ✌️cover for additional essential care that’s not covered by national insurance, with a special focus on maternal care 🖖 regular vision respiratory health screenings It will run for the next 6 years, with farmers gradually taking over the insurance cost. And as always, we’ll keep paying them a higher price for their cocoa, enabling all farmers we work with to earn a living income. ’Cause just like access to healthcare, that’s their human right. 🤝 #ChocolonelyFoundation #healthcare #cocoafarmers #cocoa #chocolate #cocoaindustry #partnership #farmers #Ghana #livingincome
Over ons
Tony’s Chocolonely is an impact company that makes chocolate, committed to ending exploitation in cocoa. And not just the cocoa in our chocolate, but in all chocolate worldwide. Tony's Chocolonely was founded in 2005 by 3 journalists from the Dutch TV show ‘Keuringsdienst van Waarde’ after they discovered that the world’s largest chocolate manufacturers were buying cocoa from plantations that used illegal labor. Since then, we've dedicated our efforts to raising awareness of and eliminating inequality in the cocoa industry, becoming the #1 chocolate brand in the Netherlands. With incredibly tasty chocolate, we lead by example and show the world that chocolate can be made differently: in taste, packaging and the way we do business with cocoa farmers. Starting with paying them a higher price. Alone, we’ll end exploitation in our cocoa supply chain, but together we can change the industry across the globe. That's why we invite everyone to join our commitment. 'Cause it's only together that we'll end exploitation in cocoa.

We’re back with another “so that’s what they mean!” post, where we explain Tony’s 5 Sourcing Principles – our tried-and-true rules to end exploitation in cocoa. ‘Cause we mention them a lot, but we might not have explained them (very) well.. Until now! We unwrapped our 1st principle (traceability) last month, now let’s dive into the 2nd one.. 2️⃣ paying farmers a higher price And not just when cocoa prices are high, but all 👏 the 👏 time 👏. Yeppp, for every bean we buy, we pay cocoa farmers the Living Income Reference Price (LIRP), set by Fairtrade International. This higher price enables farmers to earn a living income – a basic human right. And because we commit to this price long-term, we also provide farmers with income stability, getting them out of poverty and enabling them to invest in their farms. Ohhh yeah, our way of working works! That’s why we invite every chocolate company to source cocoa like us, via Tony’s Open Chain – aka our collaborative initiative for change. We’ll be back soon to unwrap our 3rd principle! Can’t wait?

We're looking back on another incredible edition of Glastonbury! ✨🍫 Following the success of last year, Tony's and GLASTONBURY FESTIVAL EVENTS LIMITED have joined forces with Oxfam GB to raise money to create an equal and fairer future without poverty– the root cause of exploitation in the cocoa industry. This year we created 32,500 limited edition bars in 2 flavours with special personalised wrappers. With the chance to win 5 x pairs of festival tickets inside the bars. All 5 pairs were found by excited festival goers and over the past 2 we’ve raised almost £100,000 together. Heck yeah! As we wrap up another incredible year at Glasto, we caught up with 3 of our lucky winners Jesse, Alys and Demi to hear about their favorite festival moments golden ticket moments. 🎟️ 🎉 Big shout out to our pals at Oxfam GB, for making this year unforgettable! #tonyschocolonely #oxfam #glastonbury #impact

Together. It’s the word that’s at the core of everything we do here at Tony’s. Why? ’Cause we’re setting out to inspire global change across the cocoa industry. And that’s a team effort. 🤝 Today, we’d like to celebrate the collaboration at the (very) start of the cocoa chain, with the farmer cooperatives we partner with. 🤝 These co-ops are people-centered organizations with democratic management, and all the farmers that Tony’s Open Chain works with are members. Here’s why that’s great: Partner cooperatives offer benefits, like.. 💵 better payment terms for farmers. 🌳 benefits of economies of scale when buying resources, like seeds and shade trees. 🔁 communally shared info centralized services, like labor brigades and training. 📣 representation of their combined interest and having one stronger voice in the market. Right now, Tony’s Open Chain works with 11 different co-ops in Ghana Côte d’Ivoire. By the end of next year, that’ll be a whoppin’ 19. We have close and direct relationships with all of them and always work with them together for the long-term to create long-term change. Happy International Co-op Day to every cooperative in cocoa. Together, we’ll raise the bar for every farmer in the industry until we end all forms of exploitation. #internationalcooperativesday #cooperatives #collaboration #partnership #tonysopenchain #cocoa #chocolate #together

You know that colleague who talks about something like you know what they mean but you’ve actually got no clue? We think we might be that colleague.. so let’s rewind. ⏪ Tony's 5 Sourcing Principles – our tried-and-true rules to end exploitation in cocoa. We mention them a lot, but what do they mean? Let’s dive into the 1st one.. ☝️ Using 100% traceable cocoa beans. Not 98%. Not 99%. We’re talking ’bout tracing every single bean that’s in your bar. Heck yeah! ’Cause knowing exactly who, where, when how cocoa is grown is key to taking responsibility. So we can make sure every farmer is paid a living income price and our cocoa remains deforestation free. 🌳 Yeppp, our way of working works! That’s why we invite every chocolate company to source cocoa like us, via Tony’s Open Chain – aka our collaborative initiative for change. We’ll be back soon to unwrap our 2nd principle! Can’t wait?

Every other child in cocoa-growing households is engaged in child labor in Ghana Côte d’Ivoire. That’s 1.56 million children, with 95% doing dangerous work. The root cause? Poverty. A direct result of the unequally divided cocoa chain, which forces farmers to turn to children for help on the farm (and we’re not talking about household chores). Tony’s exists to end exploitation in cocoa, tackling forced labor, child labor and deforestation. To drive down child labor, we (and all companies sourcing via Tony’s Open Chain) have implemented the Child Labor Monitoring and Remediation System (CLMRS), together with our partner co-ops. This system allows us to identify, address prevent child labor in our supply chain. And the proof is in the pudding: 📉 While the % of child labor cases at Tony’s Open Chain long-term partner co-ops (3 years) is 4.4%, the industry average rings in at a shocking 46.7%. We know there’s more work to be done, so we’ll keep raising the bar to raise awareness. Until we end child labor in cocoa, together. #WorldDayAgainstChildLabor #childlabor #cocoa #tonyschocolonely #tonysopenchain

Yesterday was a wildly impactful Wednesday! 🥳 We successfully wrapped up the 2nd annual Tony’s Open Chain Day: a day where we reflect on our momentum and share our progress on ending exploitation in cocoa. 🌍🍫🤝 We gathered with fellow ethical cocoa frontrunners, including our Mission Allies, like Ben & Jerry's and Aldi, as well as some of our partner co-ops from Ghana and Côte d’Ivoire, key government representatives and civil society organizations, including IDH. 🎉 Here are some of the milestones we celebrated, together: ✅ By working with Tony’s 5 Sourcing Principles, we’re enabling farmers to earn a living income, driving down child labor and protecting the planet by preventing deforestation. ✅ With welcoming Waitrose & Partners as the 1st UK retailer to join our commitment to end exploitation in cocoa, we’re now proudly at 18 Mission Allies (& counting). ✅ We reaffirmed our target of sourcing 18,900 metric tons (MT) of cocoa in 2024 and are planning to scale that number up to a staggering 30,000 MT of cocoa in 2025! ✅ We onboarded a whopping 8 (!!) new partner co-ops in West Africa, bringing our total to 19 partner co-ops (meaning we not almost doubled the number of co-ops we source beans from, but we’ll work with up to 21,7K cocoa farmers this year). In a cocoa shell: ch-ch-changes are happening, and the ethical cocoa movement is growing steadily. 💪 Together, we’re setting a new norm in cocoa! Wanna dive deeper into Tony’s Open Chain’s impact over the last year? Read our latest impact report (spoiler alert: it’s choc-full of progress!) 👉 https://lnkd.in/eXFiNMzB 👏 Let’s give it up for our host, Amelia Hoy and everyone who joined us yesterday! #cocoa #impact #tonysopenchain #tonyschocolonely #chocolate
