Yachana Gourmet is a small social enterprise that makes delicious, healthy, and minimally processed chocolate products. Yachana Gourmet uses cacao that is purchased at a fair trade price from rural cooperatives and family farms in the Amazon rainforest of Ecuador. The chocolate is grown, carefully prepared and packaged in Ecuador and then sold in US stores. Local processing and packaging means that the highest quality product is achieved, and that the local members of the community are involved from start to finish, adding value to the product in their country, thereby acquiring processing, marketing and distribution expertise in addition to a fair price!

Yachana Gourmet and FUNEDESIN partner to create a healthy, educated and skilled workforce that will address your chocolate needs, while empowering hundreds of communities and providing sustainable ways to address poverty.

Yachana Gourmet is a vibrant company with a vision. Chocolate Dividends wants to help them thrive and become a model for self-sufficient development!
