BUSH FOOD CHOCOLATE
OUR STORY
My business is Chocolate On Purpose and, with my greatest supporter & mudyibang (good friend & supportive ally) Jo, we proudly work on Gundungurra Country in Moss Vale on the Southern Highlands of NSW.
This Ngurambang (Country) was never ceded. It always was and always will be Aboriginal Land.
Our premier chocolate range is called ‘Bush Food Chocolate’, a fusion of the finest Belgian chocolate and the best of Australian native botanicals aka ‘Bush Food’.
CHOCOLATE FOR GOOD™
OUR SOLUTIONS CREATE REAL IMPACT
Increase Indigenous Farmers Participation
For every extra production run that increased automation will enable we can increase our buy from an Indigenous farmer by 10 kilos, contributing to their increased participation in the supply chain.
Empower Women & Eradicate Child Labour
In 2021 our purchase of ethically sourced chocolate contributed to:
- Eradicating 25,000 cases of forced child labour.
- Empowered 38% more women by training them as cocao farmers.
- Raised 122,000 cacao farmers above the poverty line.
Save the Rainforests and the Orangutans
By choosing not to use palm oil this past hour:
- We helped prevent 300 football fields of rainforest from being burnt.
- As a result, we have stopped 174 tonnes of CO2 being released into the atmosphere
- Every day we help prevent the death of sixteen orangutans.
