Fair Trade at Xocolatl House

At Xocolatl House, our commitment to ethical practices is the foundation of everything we do. Creating exceptional cacao products begins with respecting the people and communities and cultivating this cherished ingredient. That’s why we proudly support fair trade principles, ensuring that every step of our process reflects fairness, sustainability, and transparency.

What Fair Trade Means to Us

Fairtrade is about more than just business—it’s about building relationships rooted in trust and respect. We partner directly with small-scale women farmers in Tabasco, Mexico, who uphold traditional cacao-growing methods passed down for generations. By working closely with these farmers, we ensure they receive fair wages, equitable treatment, and the resources needed to sustain their livelihoods and communities.

How We Support Fair Trade

Fair Wages

We pay above-market prices for our cacao, recognizing the skill and dedication required to produce high-quality beans. This helps our farming partners achieve financial stability and reinvest in their land and practices

Empowering Women Farmers

Many of our partners are women who lead the way in preserving ancient cacao cultivation and processing methods. Supporting them directly contributes to gender equity and strengthens local communities.

Sustainability Practices

We work with farmers who use environmentally friendly methods, such as organic farming and hand-processing techniques, to minimize their ecological footprint.

Direct Trade Relationships

By cutting out intermediaries, we ensure that the farmers receive the full benefit of their labor while fostering strong, transparent partnerships.
