Tony’s Open Chain is branching out with Baronie and Cémoi

 

As a new chocolate processor for Tony’s Open Chain, Baronie and Cémoi will continue to invest in a fully segregated cocoa supply chain, in order to be able to handle and process the segregated Tony’s Open Chain cocoa beans, cocoa mass and cocoa butter. As a “chain connector”, they are linking their cocoa production facility in Côte d'Ivoire and their cocoa-processing facility in Bourbourg (France) to Tony's Open Chain, in order to produce Tony’s Open Chain liquid chocolate for Mission Allies.

Jean-Marie van Logtestijn (member of the Board of Sweet Products NV) about this news: “We are continuously driven by our commitments and empowered by our ambition to further expand our role as partners in chocolate. By becoming a processor for Tony’s Open Chain, our presence and expertise in the world’s leading cocoa origin and our production facilities will enable & support the Mission Allies in their growth”. Tony’s Chocolonely will continue its partnership with Barry Callebaut as the producer for Tony’s chocolate, where the flow of beans has been traceable and segregated since 2012 and traceable butter was introduced in 2016.
