STORY

Two Malagasy families bought the dilapidated government-owned Mava plantation in 2015 to produce fine-flavoured cocoa, with the aim of making the best chocolate ever from these home-grown beans. Getting a job at Mava Ottange is highly desirable as workers earn a good salary, have transport facilities, health insurance and many other benefits in kind. This sustainable plantation is actively involved in the reforestation of the island, which has lost 40% of its forests in the last 60 years.
