At our London Bootcamp, we were lucky enough to have Jeff, founder of , speak to our participants about what it really looks like to build a vertically integrated company working with smallholder farmers in Uganda. 🇺🇬🍫

Jeff walked the room through their collection point system... over 200 village-level points located within walking distance of farms across western Uganda. Registered producers receive immediate, premium cash payments using calibrated scales, all linked to their phone. Cash on delivery, at a fair price, every time. The economic impact on farming communities has been profound.

We don’t believe there’s one definitive answer in cocoa. We teach the full value chain, travel back to origin, bust myths, and give hot takes. Our instructors don’t always agree... and we think that’s exactly the point.

If you’re curious and want to keep learning, you’re in the right place.

Systems. Relationships. Context. 🍫

When it comes to cocoa and chocolate, there are no definitive answers. New information emerges all the time… and our knowledge will always be incomplete.

So instead of teaching that there’s one correct answer, we teach to the best of our knowledge... and invite you to question everything.

Our instructors bring in fellow experts, partner organisations, growers, and students… because the best learning happens when you see things from another perspective.

This is what guides every Cocoa Masterclass course. 🌱
