ABOUT OCELOT
Why choose Ocelot? Nice packaging, tasty chocolate - there’s plenty of that around. Is there is more to our chocolate? YES! and here’s what…
We Support Farmers: Our beans come from the world’s best - and best paid - cacao growers. We pay 100% living income directly to farmers, as well as providing them with vital resources. In 2023 Original Beans schooled 2,944 farmers, 40% of them women.
We GROW Trees: When you break a piece of Ocelot you are breaking ground for a tree. To-date Original Beans and Ocelot customers have helped grow more than 3 million trees in origin (the world’s longest-running one-for-one forestation programme). And we don’t just outsource this work: our growers plant the trees at source, regenerating the forests around them.
We are 100% Organic: Our farmers work with nature, not against it.
We Protect the Rainforest: In 2023 our farmers protected 8 hotspot rainforests. Through our One4One Trees program, we support indigenous growers in planting and nurturing native trees, contributing to forest restoration and biodiversity.
We Empower Women: Original Beans employs hundreds of female farmers, most notably our Femmes de Virunga (DRC); where hundreds of women have taken local leadership to become craft cocoa growers, heal their war-torn communities, and regenerate the forests: together these women have planted more than 100,000 trees!
Our packaging is fully recyclable / compostable, and we are on our way to a net-carbon negative footprint. In 2023 Original Beans drew down 15,221 tonnes of CO2.
