An answer to the cocoa crisis
Coopercabruca was founded in response to the crisis that hit the farms when witches' broom disease reached the region.
Cocoa farmers are, above all, stubborn people who don't give up, even when the outlook is poor.
Like any cooperative we work together, but with a new idea: instead of selling only beans, our members make and sell high-quality, high-value cocoa products.
We want our products to be known and recognised for excellence in Brazil and around the world, and to change the way people see cocoa from Southern Bahia.
