At Tony’s Chocolonely our mission is to make all chocolate 100% slave free. Not just our chocolate, but all chocolate worldwide. We are an impact company that makes chocolate, and we are changing the industry from within. Right now there are 1.56 million children working illegally and at least 30,000 instances of modern slavery on cocoa farms in West Africa. Tony’s five sourcing principles have been proven to increase the number of farmers earning a living income, and dramatically decrease these rates of child labour labour. Plus, our Tony's Open Chain initiative is scaling our positive impact by recruiting mission allies like Ben and Jerry’s to source cocoa the way we do.
But that's not all - we're also the fastest-growing chocolate brands in the UK. We're leading the way in ethical chocolate production, and consumers love our delicious bars and products. We're on a mission to create awareness of the inequalities in the chocolate supply chain, to lead by example with our best-practice approach to chocolate making, and to inspire others to join us in changing the industry for the better.
And the coolest part? Profit is only a means to achieving our goal. We're a B Corp committed to making a positive impact on the world, from reducing our environmental footprint to creating a supportive and fulfilling work environment for our employees. With a turnover of around €150 million and annual growth of over 25%, we're expanding rapidly and have big plans for the future. So, if you're looking to join a company that's making a real difference and is on an exciting growth journey, come and join us at Tony's Chocolonely!
