Beyond Fairtrade

Fair is not fair enough for Pacari. Pacari therefore deliberately refrains from working with the well-known Fairtrade organization (read more about Fairtrade) but is part of the World Fair Trade Organization. At Pacari, they not only pride themselves on paying cocoa farmers the highest prices for their crop, they also maintain family relationships with the farming cooperatives. As the most B Corp-certified company, the focus is not on profits, but on ensuring that everyone involved in the value chain works and is paid under fair conditions.

Twenty years ago, Carla Barbotó and Santiago Peralta founded Pacari in Ecuador. They worked with 30 cocoa farming families and tweaked recipes. Little by little, Pacari was able to grow - and with it the vision of turning the cocoa world upside down. Today, complete value creation on site and direct trade make it possible for over 4,000 small farmers to live independently from their cocoa harvest. Meanwhile, in Ecuador, over 80 employees work passionately every day to process and market the cocoa. The community that has grown together over the course of two decades extends from the local producers and manufacturer, to the direct importer Premifair for Germany and Austria, to the specialized trade and ultimately to consumers and chocolate lovers.

To emphasize the importance of this community, the company founders set a sign: Pacari is now called Paccari. The additional C stands for Comunidad (community), Consciencia (conscience), Creatividad (creativity) and Confianza (trust). Little by little you will discover the new name and logo on the website, in the media and also in the stores and on the packaging.
