Sourced cocoa from Ghana and Côte d’Ivoire

Paid premiums to farmers

In addition to the Fairtrade premium, Tony’s pays a living income premium to enable cocoa farmers to earn a living income from the cocoa they sell. The premium helps increase income and reduce outgoings by supporting agricultural training courses, nurseries for new cocoa trees, bulk fertiliser purchases, central water pumps and more accessible education.

Sold 13.3 million kg of chocolate

Last financial year, Tony’s sold 13,347,031 kg of chocolate. The company says growth enables it to work with more farmers who benefit from its playbook for a fairer cocoa supply chain and to make more noise in the chocolate industry.
