Fairtrade Belgium’s Post

🎅🍫 Why Saint Nicholas Shouldn’t Have to Choose Sustainable Chocolate 🌍 Tonight, as Saint Nicholas fills Belgian children’s shoes with toys and chocolate delights, there’s a good chance that these treats will bring joy not only to our children but also to the children of cocoa farmers. This is thanks to some bold steps taken recently by Albert Heijn and Colruyt Group, who recently committed to sourcing sustainable living income cocoa for (parts of) their private-label chocolate. By ensuring a fair price and better living conditions for cocoa farmers, they are making the choice for sustainability themselves, rather than leaving it up to consumers. This move sets an inspiring precedent: what is still an exception today could soon become the norm. But this can only happen if the #enablingenvironment through ambitious supply chain policies and multi-stakeholders initiatives lives up to its' full potential. Only then will Saint Nicholas be a feast for ALL children to enjoy.
