RUTA DEL CHOCOLATE

The initiative focuses on transforming cocoa into various products while promoting ecotourism in a rural area. It began with local farmers seeking sustainable crops after facing problems with previous businesses. The project not only grows cocoa, but also educates visitors about the entire production process, improving community engagement. By integrating tourism, the initiative aims to create economic opportunities and reduce dependence on illicit crops. It emphasizes the importance of networking and collaboration with local organizations to strengthen its business model and expand its market reach.
