(although still miss the trade aid chocolate too)
SIMPLY THE BEST 🍫The annual 2026 Chocolate Scorecard has just been released, and Benetto Chocolate has placed in the highest tier (Green band) of the global chocolate industry! 🎉🌏
Benetto's Swiss manufacturer of 9 years, was also ranked the number one ethical chocolate manufacturer in the world!
The Chocolate Scorecard is the chocolate industry's independent annual sustainability assessment. It is coordinated by Be Slavery Free. Each year, it scores chocolate companies across seven categories: traceability and transparency, living income, child and forced labour, deforestation, agroforestry and climate, pesticides, and gender. Results are presented as a traffic light system. Green for industry leaders, yellow and orange for companies on the journey, red for companies a long way off, and grey for companies that refuse to be assessed at all. And there are Bad Egg awards, for companies declining to participate.
Well done Lucy and the team at Bennetto, for working hard to provide us with the most ethical chocolate! (Whilst also not compromising on taste obviously! 😋)
