Cocoa Sisters Has Officially Launched: A Night to Remember

Written By Natasha Rawley

In May, we celebrated something truly special, the official launch of Cocoa Sisters. It was a powerful evening filled with community, connection, and purpose, and we’re still feeling deeply grateful for the incredible support that brought the event to life.

A Brand Rooted in Purpose

Cocoa Sisters is more than just chocolate. It’s a mission-led business built to empower female cocoa bean farmers, ensuring they receive fair pay, fair treatment, and the recognition they deserve in a global industry that too often overlooks them.

Our work begins with amazing women like Agnes, Lucy, and Delwvin, whose cocoa beans were featured in our very first chocolate collection, sampled by guests on the night of our launch.

Highlights from the Evening

The launch event was hosted at the stunning Service London, a space that perfectly reflected the heart of our brand—modern, warm, and full of soul.

Guests experienced:

🍫 A tasting of our debut chocolate, made from the cocoa beans of our founding female farmers

🍸 Chocolate martinis and brownies, crafted using their beans—bringing flavour, story, and celebration together

🎤 Inspiring speeches from key supporters and champions of ethical trade, including:

H.E. Mr Moses Kouni Mose, Ambassador of the Solomon Islands to the European Union, who reminded us of the importance of supporting Pacific communities

Minister Catherine West MP, who spoke passionately about the role of women in global trade and entrepreneurship

Thank You to Our Supporters

We were honoured to be joined by distinguished guests and partners who have championed our mission from the start:

  • International Trade Centre (ITC)

  • Minister Catherine West MP

  • H.E. Mr Moses Kouni Mose, Ambassador of the Solomon Islands to the EU

  • Paul Bute, Head of Consular Strategy and Network, Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office (FCDO)

  • Lena Sheikh, FCDO

  • Peter Harrington, Pacific Regional Trade Advisor

Your presence and support helped make the night not only successful, but deeply meaningful.

What’s Next for Cocoa Sisters?

This is only the beginning. As we grow, our commitment remains clear: to deliver high-quality, ethically sourced chocolate while championing the women who make it possible.

We’re excited to continue telling their stories, expanding our impact, and connecting with more customers, partners, and changemakers who believe in chocolate with purpose.
