Who's profiting
Almost everywhere in the world, chocolate fans love chomping down on a big chunk of choco. Almost everybody loves chocolate. And everybody has his or her own favourite flavour. Big chocolate companies not just make a lot of chocolate, the make a LOT of money too. And there's nothing wrong with making money and profit. Businesses need it. Without profit, a business will go broke. However, there is something wrong with profit when it is made through exploitation happening at the start of the value chain, where people live in extreme poverty.

2,5 million farmers in Ghana and Ivory Coast produce more than 60% of all cocoa worldwide. The average cocoa farmer in Ivory Coast earns on average 67 eurocents (source: Cacaobarometer 2018)* per day. That's not an living income. You can't support a family on 67 cents a day, even in West-Afrika, where cost of living is lower than it is here.
