The German Initiative on Sustainable Cocoa (GISCO), the Swiss Platform for Sustainable Cocoa (SWISSCO) and the Belgian platform Beyond Chocolate commit for sustainable cocoa.

These three actors bring together a large part of the national cocoa and chocolate industry, food trading companies, civil society organizations and research institutions as well as representatives of the respective national government. Together they work on the four main challenges in the cocoa sector: child labour, poverty, traceability and deforestation. The signing of a Memorandum of Understanding confirms the joint work.
