Latitude Craft Chocolate

Latitude Trade Company (LTC) is a rapidly growing social enterprise in Uganda established in 2016 sourcing specialty cacao for export to the US and European chocolate industry, and producing bean to bar chocolate at origin (Latitude Craft Chocolate). Working with over 1,000 certified organic smallholder farmers, our mission is to sustainably increase incomes and reduce risk for our suppliers while positively impacting the community and environment surrounding our operations. We offer farmers better-than-fair trade prices, while providing chocolate makers in the US and Europe with the highest quality, transparently sourced and fully traceable Ugandan cacao.

LTC’s chocolate was awarded a bronze at the 2017 International Chocolate Awards and our Semuliki Forest cacao was recognized as one of the top 50 samples in the world by the Cocoa of Excellence program in 2019.
