Social responsibility

Print
At Barry Callebaut we are proud of our long history in chocolate and proud of what we do today. We are committed to striving for excellence as a manufacturer, a business partner and an employer. We believe successful relationships are built on trust and that integrity is the basis of that trust.
We take seriously the responsibility to ensure the quality of our products, to invest in the professional development of our employees, and to contribute to the communities where we live and work.

Commitment to origin countries

As the world’s largest producer of cocoa and chocolate products, Barry Callebaut has had a long association with the countries in West Africa and Latin America that grow cocoa. In these countries of origin we work to develop mutually beneficial relationships with our suppliers, we invest in the training and professional development of our employees and we contribute to the economic and social well-being of the local communities.
