Sourcing Masterclass

In-Depth Training For The Cocoa Professional
From the foundations of botany and quality evaluation to the intricate logistics, we unravel the complexities of our trade to help you navigate the value chain. During 2 immersive days, the Sourcing Masterclass course offers a unique opportunity to learn alongside peers from across the industry, all eager to deepen their understanding of cocoa sourcing.

Founded by Kate Cavallin, of Cacao Latitudes, this masterclass was born out of a growing need within the industry for a comprehensive resource on cocoa sourcing. Our masterclass brings together industry experts who possess invaluable insights and knowledge accumulated through years of experience. With their guidance, you'll gain a profound understanding of the complexities of cacao that are often elusive outside of cocoa-growing regions.
