República del Cacao now available in the UK!
República del Cacao is a local brand with global impact, our products can be found in more than 20 countries around the world. We create chocolates with excellence and dedication from the hand of expert chocolatiers who are in charge of bringing the flavors and aromas of fine cocoa from our region to the world. As of March 22nd our professional (B2B) product line will be available in the United Kingdom through distributor Henley Bridge.
Henley Bridge is part of the Food Service Premium (FSP) group. Its objective is to support chefs in creating moments of joy through food. The range of products that will be available through this distributor are our White Chocolate Ecuador 35%, Milk Chocolate Ecuador 40% Caramelized, Dark Chocolate Ecuador 56% Fluid, Dark Chocolate Ecuador 65%, Dark Chocolate Blend Ecuador + Peru 70% and Dark Chocolate Ecuador Amazonia 75%.
Evan Millar, our Senior Business Development Manager in the UK, gives us plenty of motivation for this new path the company is embarking on, he says:
"... the difference is the passionate team we have here in the UK plus our team in Ecuador, and of course our authenticity. So far I have not seen any other brand in the market that can compete on Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR), telling a real story, its origins, full traceability of South American raw materials and quality. The distinctive flavors of each profile of República del Cacao products will make the biggest difference. Personally, I think these are profiles that the European market is going to love."
Evan also believes that our Amazonia 75% dark chocolate will become a "best-seller" in the country, thanks to its unique flavor notes that come from the Sacha cocoa beans.
We are very excited about this new market full of endless possibilities! We are proud to reach more and more countries with a Latin American chocolate of excellence and quality that promotes our history and culture internationally. All our chocolates are produced locally and come from small cocoa plantations in Latin America, supporting our cocoa farmer partners in their social, economic and environmental development.
See you soon for more!
