In addition, on Tuesday from 2 PM onward, Saskia Samama, marketing manager Sustainable Cocoa, will hold a focus session on the positive impact of sustainability on cocoa farmers, their communities, suppliers and manufacturers, outlining the most effective ways of increasing the volume of certified sustainable cocoa. This focus session builds on Cargill’s Cocoa Promise initiative, a finalist for the FiE Sustainability Excellence Award.

Cargill’s own stand will also feature a dynamic and interactive presentation corner, livened by technical demonstrations and knowledge-sharing sessions. Johan Peremans, Application Technology Manager: "We look forward to meeting our customers and supporting their strategic and financial goals by discussing the many ways we can jointly develop healthier, cost-optimized and sustainable solutions that meet the changing expectations of consumers around the world."
