Nestlé announces sustainable Smarties
Nestlé Australia has announced that every chocolate it sells is now independently certified to ensure the cocoa is sourced and produced sustainably on farms with safe working conditions. More than 3000 tonnes of UTZ Certified cocoa is now being used to produce products such as Kit Kat, Smarties and Club chocolate.
The company is the first major chocolate manufacturer in Australia to source all the cocoa for its retail confectionery business from certified and sustainable farms working with the Nestlé Cocoa Plan.
The Nestlé Cocoa Plan is designed to help farmers run profitable farms, eliminate the use of child labour and ensure a sustainable supply of cocoa.
Sustainable bars will carry the Nestlé Cocoa Plan and UTZ Certified symbols on-pack.
