What is your investment supporting?
With Cacao Source we value transparency. The project is 100% circular economy, which means, no members of Cacao Source is profiting from sharing ceremonial cacao. All members from the leadership team, indigenous/Guatemalan, ladino/Guatemalan and international contributors are earning an equally fair Guatemalan wage. All funds are reinvested into the growth of Cacao Source, its impact in rural Guatemala or into our NGO Give Back to the Source. Cacao Source was originally created to ensure that, as the ceremonial cacao movement is growing, the farmers and indigenous community isn't left behind. We are on a mission to bring prosperity back in Guatemalan lands. We offer bi-yearly transparent report with real numbers to support our claims with our open-book policy. We believe in empowerment of consumers to create a truly fair-trade cacao movement, where consumers have access to the answers of all their questions to make a conscious choice. Any questions?
