Cargill recently transformed its global cocoa supply chain, unveiling a series of interconnected investments that reduce carbon emissions, eliminate waste and boost efficiency, from cocoa origin countries in West Africa to processing hubs in Europe. The company’s upgrades span renewable energy, circular logistics and smart infrastructure.
“Sustainability isn’t a single project at Cargill — it’s how we operate,” says Emiel van Dijk, managing director of cocoa and chocolate for Europe and West Africa at Cargill. “From circular waste reuse to renewable transport and clean energy, we’re showing that climate action can scale without compromise.”
