FOR A BETTER WORLD
Our steps towards sustainable cultivation.
OUR CHOCOLATE
For Witor’s “the joy of chocolate” also means contributing to living in a better world. Therefore, we purchase large amounts of Rainforest and Fairtrade certified cocoas, to support socially and environmentally sustainable cocoa farming. In fillings, to provide a product with excellent taste and palatability with low environmental impact, we use RSPO Mass Balance certified palm oil.

The Fairtrade programme, on the other hand, provides growers with a guaranteed minimum price for their cocoa, benefits, and knowledge transfer schemes.
