_Sourcing_

## Strong sourcing links from Africa and Asia.

Reliable supply is essential for continuous production and sustainable trade. Our raw material network is built on sources in Africa and Asia.

_Why it matters_

### Trust in supply means continuity in production.

Following sources across regions, developing international relationships and aligning supply with production needs sit at the centre of how we work.

_The cocoa belt_

### Where does cocoa grow?

The cocoa tree needs a hot, humid climate, so it only grows in the tropical belt roughly 20° north and south of the equator.

#### West Africa

The region where most of the world’s cocoa comes from. The African side of our sourcing network is built here.

#### Southeast Asia

Asia’s important cocoa-growing region and the Asian side of our sourcing network.

#### The journey to Türkiye

The line from source to production in Kütahya requires planning, logistics and communication managed together.

_How we work_

### Three steps from source to production.

#### Following sources

We closely track supply sources and market developments in Africa and Asia.

#### Planning and coordination

We plan supply around the production schedule and keep every party informed.

#### Long-term relationships

We build sourcing relationships for lasting partnership, not just today’s order.

A strong bridge between source and industry.

_Frequently asked questions_

#### How do you align supply with production?

We follow sources and market developments closely, plan supply together with the production schedule and keep every party informed.
