The month of October 2010 marked the tenth anniversary of the World Cocoa Foundation (WCF).
During a recent two-day partnership meeting in Washington, D.C., the foundation focused on the theme "Marking a Decade of Cocoa Sustainability"
Some of the leading members of the WCF were there, representing many large and influential chocolate manufacturers including: Blommer Chocolate Company, Kraft Foods, The Hershey Company, Ghirardelli Chocolate Company, Olam International Ltd., Armajaro, and Casa Luker Colombia. WCF members represent more than 80% of the global cocoa market.
There were sessions during the meeting that talked about moving forward on subjects like cocoa and the environment, child labor, emerging markets, diversification, food security, and more cocoa research.
WCF is an international foundation committed to promoting a sustainable cocoa economy. The goal is to help increase the supply of cocoa while increasing the quality of life for those that farm cacao and their families and communities.
