Fin Carré and UTZ Certified
Who are UTZ Certified?
UTZ Certified is a sustainability programme for cocoa, coffee and tea. It provides education in good farming practices and shows farmers how they can produce cocoa more professionally, effectively, productively and sustainably. Additionally, farmers are also educated in business management, health and safety maintenance and environmental management. The aim of the programme is to enable farmers to ask for a better price for a better product. To succeed in sustainable cocoa farming, the smallholders commit themselves to upholding the UTZ Certified Code of Conduct.
The UTZ Certified retraceability system achieves transparency in the trading of certified goods and guarantees that the raw materials have been farmed and harvested using responsible methods. This strengthens the confidence of the buyers and sellers and enables all parties to negotiate fair prices for sustainably produced goods.
