About
Company description
Crops like cocoa can only be grown in certain parts of the world, where rainforests thrive. But the demand for these ingredients leads to mass deforestation and huge carbon emissions, which will only be made worse through climate change. According to Global Forest Watch, Ghana – a major producer of cocoa – lost 1.4 million hectares of tree cover from 2000 to 2021, resulting in 739 million tons of CO2 emissions. At Planet A Foods, we use proprietary technology to ferment plant-based ingredients, allowing us to naturally recreate the flavours and fats in the foods we love. That means we can produce food ingredients locally and sustainably, which are decoupled from limited land and labor resources. ChoViva is a new chocolatey taste experience without cocoa, but with a climate-friendly concept. Locally grown oats and sunflower seeds are processed with an innovative, fermentation-like method. This creates a rich and velvety texture full of flavours very similar to chocolate with a much better carbon footprint.
