The Wellington Chocolate Factory - est. 2013

I co-founded The Wellington Chocolate Factory, the first craft bean-to-bar chocolate factory in New Zealand.

Our mission is to create ethical and sustainable chocolate products that are delicious for people and the planet.

We source our cocoa beans directly from farmers, paying fair prices and building long-term relationships. We use organic and fair trade ingredients. And our chocolate bars are made with the same passion and dedication I witnessed on my cocoa adventures.

The Wellington Chocolate factory is the industry pioneer in New Zealand and the only Certified Organic Chocolate makers.

THE ORIGINAL COCOA TRADERS EST. 2004

The originators of the 'Melbourne-Style' drinking chocolate trend.

Countless brands have since flooded the hospitality market, yet they have yet to travel this far down the rabbit hole of quality and ethics:

  • Absolute transparency.

  • Certified Organic, FairTrade, Carbon Neutral (for real).

  • Chocolate experts who have a long, respected history in coffee.

  • We visit and work directly at Origin and are friends with those who make our bespoke cocoa powder in Peru.

  • Our products are more than just another branded bag of cocoa and sugar with half-assed claims of quality and ethics.

  • Digital design and branding by the award-winning team at Inject Design.

We work with several like-minded distributors in Australia, Europe and the US. Let me know if you're interested in sampling our range for your outlet, I'd be happy to connect and send some your way.
