More about Cocoa Social Enterprise CIC

Cocoa Social Enterprise CIC offers specialty, unique and creative chocolate products for gift boxes and hampers for family and friends as treats aside from occasions.

Our aim is to give our customers a great opportunity to offer something different from multiple retailers and in return create great customer loyalty and repeat sales.

We buy our cocoa beans from Nigeria or Peru from small scale farmers at a premium fair price. This supports the farmer's families especially their children in their education.

Key information

Opening hours Monday to Friday 9:am to 6:30pm except for Saturdays which is 10am to 2pm.
