República del Cacao in Japan, Strengthening Cooperation in International Markets

Apr 6, 2021

We are a local brand with global impact. Fine aroma cocoa is part of our Latin American heritage, and we are proud to be promoters of its history in communities around the world. With this purpose in mind, a few weeks ago our chocolates were part of a special event at the Valrhona Japan facility in Tokyo.

The event was attended by 3 members of the Embassy of Ecuador in Japan, the Ambassador, the Second Secretary and the Secretary to the Ambassador, and also with the participation of 22 chefs from Valrhona Japan.

The products that were part of this great event were our Amazon Dark Chocolate 75%, our Ecuador White Chocolate 31%, and our Ecuador Milk Chocolate 40% Caramelized, with which the participating chefs developed 3 delicious desserts. Additionally, with our Ecuador Dark Chocolate 56%, our Ecuador Dark Chocolate 56% Fluid and our Cocoa Nibs, the chefs also developed tastings through which the Ambassador and his team were able to learn and appreciate all the characteristics of a product as unique as fine aroma chocolate.

The objective of the event was to strengthen relations with the Ecuadorian Embassy in Japan, in order to develop the presence of our products and achieve greater collaboration between markets. For the attendees this was an event like no other, through which they were able to learn more about Ecuador and all the possibilities that can be developed with the production of a local product with global impact.
