Some important actions we are taking to prevent the prevalence of chronic diseases are:
• Increasing the presence of power ingredients like fruit, fiber, and whole grains that support a healthy heart and overall well-being.
• Craft delicious creations with lower sugar, reduced fat (saturated and trans), and controlled levels of salt (sodium) as the excessive intake of these three can be associated with higher risk of developing non-communicable diseases like cardiovascular disease.

We firmly believe, as part of our Employee Health & Well-being Blueprint vision, that well-being inspires well-doing. One of our commitments is towards the Physical and Mental Health of our workforce, empowering them to sustain the energy required to achieve their full potential and deliver exceptional results.
We provide various tools and resources that help manage and prevent cardiovascular diseases like:
• Continuous communications and trainings to create awareness and empower a self-care culture.

With sustainability at the core, Puratos Grand-Place proudly became a sponsor of Cocoa Association of Asia. Gricha Safarian, Managing Director of Puratos Grand-Place Indochina, emphasized the true essence of sustainability in his opening remarks. "Sustainability," Gricha said, "is about growing your business without harming the environment or communities around you. True sustainability means paying for what we use.”
For the first time, 16 farmers from eight countries - Malaysia, Indonesia, Papua New Guinea, Côte d'Ivoire, Uganda, Bolivia, and Vietnam - came together in the Farmer Network at the Cocoa Association of Asia (CAA). This initiative was created to give a voice to the people who are often at the heart of the cocoa industry but rarely heard.
The farmers discussed six key topics, guided by Selene Scotton: Sustainable Farming Practices, Innovative Technologies and Methods, Climate Change Adaptation, Market Access and Trade, Community Development and Farmer Cooperation, and Regulatory & Compliance.
Representing Vietnam were: Ms. Nguyen Hong Thuong, Director of Nhat Tam Cooperative from Dak Lak Province, and Mr. Dong Tien Hung, Director of A1 Cocoa Company from Binh Phuoc Province. Alongside the Puratos Grand-Place team, they actively contributed to the discussions, highlighting Vietnam’s practices in cocoa farming.
As we look ahead, we anticipate positive changes within the cocoa industry. By continuing to collaborate, share knowledge, and embrace innovation, we can ensure that cocoa remains a thriving, sustainable industry.
