Cacao SharesCacao SharesCacao forests worldwide are facing challenges due to severe drough and climate change, some researchers even argue that Cacao may be extinct by year 2050. Some large corporations have responded by trying to make Cacao into a GMO.
Our vision is different, we aim at preserving Cacao in its natural environment by identifying and propagating ancestral varieties of Cacao that can only be found in Venezuela
The best Cacao needs traceability and authenticity. We aim at Creating just that
Cacao is essential for making chocolate. There is a possibility that world Cacao will become extinct or become a GMO by 2050. Consumers hope for keeping their chocolate natural and diverse
We want to build the chocolate blockchain. Create own and operate agroforestry systems preserving exotic Cacao varieties that can be fully traceable for authenticity, sustainability, food safety and fair trade
Respect the ethical choices of consumers
Applying innovative blockchain technology and precision agriculture techniques we will be able to rescue biodiversity of theobroma cacao that can only be found in Venezuela. Rescuing ancestral varieties of Cacao with high traceability will also empower the local communities and small scale growers to have a more direct connection to the markets consuming their Cacao beans
To our investors and shareholders we can promise:
Our business model is to create, own and operate Agroforestry systems featuring exotic varieties of Cacao. Fruits from the Theobroma Cacaotree are essential for making luxury chocolate. We plan to extend the reach of the agroforestry system up to the International markets, using an open ledger approach (Blockchain) to traceability and authenticity
This innovation will act as a bridge between small scale producers, empowering them with technology to conquer global markets. We are looking at fair trade, better prices and better ethical choices for consumers
To our investors and shareholders we can promise:
We are making an MVP for a platform that will make a digital tree ownership via a census using an open ledger (blockchain) and offer detailed information about the Cacao and the way it was grown and the way it was traded from the source to the final markets
Partnering with small scale growers and empowering them through technology makes us different from other exporters. One village at a time we can transform Cacao industry and preserve exotic varieties
We are taking the traceability from the most upstream element: the trees. To the downstream: the chocolate bar
Tree by Tree we log variables that aggregate into information of the Forest
