As part of our Forever Chocolate commitments, we will source 100% sustainable ingredients in all our products by 2025. Achieving sustainable dairy products is a big challenge to us, as it is a large contributor to carbon emissions, and therefore, climate change.

Barry Callebaut supports more ambitious carbon emission reduction targets.

Each year, in Europe alone, Barry Callebaut trucks clock up the equivalent of five hundred circumnavigations of planet earth transporting chocolate from factories to customers. A new initiative is mapping out ways to reduce our carbon emissions from road transportation by up to an astounding 30%. Not only does this save on transport costs, this reduction represents a significant milestone on Barry Callebaut’s journey to achieve its Forever Chocolate target of being carbon positive by 2025.

After the successful participation in the European Sugar Beet Project, Barry Callebaut is partnering with the Sustainable Agriculture Initiative Platform (SAI) to implement a similar project in Russia. This project is another example of how Barry Callebaut is using the power of partnerships to achieve its goal of 100% sustainable ingredients by 2025.
