North American cocoa processor and ingredient chocolate supplier Blommer Chocolate is set to launch RSPO-certified, mass balance palm oil in the US.

This development comes after the company received certification from the Roundtable on Sustainable Palm Oil (RSPO).

The company's palm oil commitment is an extension of its global Sustainable Origins initiative which operates farmer training programs throughout West Africa, Indonesia and the Americas and has to date reached over 60,000 cocoa farmers worldwide.

Blommer Sustainability Corporate Director Kip Walk said: "In addition to our certified palm oil commitment, we're also working directly with suppliers to better understand and evaluate the entire palm oil supply chain."

"As we are doing with the cocoa supply chain, we aim to achieve traceable supplies while working to protect rainforests and biodiversity, endeavoring to minimize the carbon footprint of our supply chain and support the welfare of all stakeholders - including producers and workers - that contribute to this supply."

As part of its cocoa sustainability efforts - Sacha Gold Program, Blommer teams up with Provincial Ecuadorian Government and Cimarron Estates to train over 1,300 farmers with best agricultural practices.

The program will be carried out in 66 local communities and plans to distribute more than 1.2 million seedlings for their harvests.
