Grown by a thousand organic stallholders farmers-- 52% of whom are womeb-- in Bundibugyo, Western Uganda, Semuliki Forest cacao reflects a deep community connection.
Farmers deliver fresh cacao weekly to a handful of rural collection points established by Latitude Trade Co., receiving cash at the point of sale.
Fermentation and drying take place at LTC's centralised facility in Budapest, strategically located at the foot of the mountains to maximise sunlight while managing heavy rainfall. This careful process ensures high-quality cacao while supporting sustainable livelihoods.
