It was established in 2000 and is headquartered in Washington, D.C., United States. The WCF represents more than 100 member companies involved in the cocoa value chain, including cocoa growers, processors, and chocolate manufacturers.

History[edit]

The World Cocoa Foundation was established in 2000 by a group of cocoa industry companies committed to sustainability in the cocoa sector. The foundation's mission is to promote a sustainable cocoa economy through economic and social development and environmental stewardship in cocoa-growing communities.

Programs[edit]

The World Cocoa Foundation runs several programs aimed at improving the livelihoods of cocoa farmers and promoting sustainability in the cocoa sector. These include:

  • CocoaAction: A voluntary industry-wide strategy that aligns the world’s leading cocoa and chocolate companies, origin governments, and key stakeholders on regional productivity and community development goals.
  • Climate Smart Cocoa: A program that supports the development and implementation of strategies to address the impact of climate change on the cocoa sector.

Membership[edit]

Membership in the World Cocoa Foundation is open to companies and organizations involved in the cocoa value chain. Members benefit from access to the latest research and information on cocoa sustainability, opportunities to influence the direction of the cocoa sector, and the chance to collaborate with other industry stakeholders.

Partnerships[edit]

The World Cocoa Foundation works in partnership with a range of organizations, including governments, non-governmental organizations, research institutions, and other industry stakeholders.
