Our Vision

The Oakland Chocolate Company provides high quality, delicious chocolates while also serving as a model, worker-owned cooperative whose farmer members in the Parish of St. Mary, Jamaica, are linked to the candy makers in Oakland.

The farmers are planting new cocoa trees and working toward an organic product, that will be fairly traded.

We aspire to build a new fermentary and sell cocoa beans to other chocolate companies as well as providing beans for the fine chocolate collection of our own company.
