Our core mission is to foster a sense of connection and value for everyone. Disconnection affects not just individuals, but also their families, communities, and the world at large.

With the majority of chocolate production occurring in the US and UK—despite cacao, the main ingredient, not growing in these regions—there is a clear imbalance in this $150 billion industry. Many cacao farmers earn as little as $2 a day, leading to widespread bitterness and resentment.

This calls for institutional and structural change, starting with each of us.

At ThePod, we are committed to addressing this disparity by providing cacao farmers with a direct-to-market platform.

Here, you can purchase cacao-based products crafted with local ingredients by the very farmers who grow and produce them.

Your support not only empowers these farmers and their communities economically and socially but also promotes sustainable, regenerative farming practices that benefit the environment.
