Our favorite chocolates:
This interview was held at the Northwest Chocolate Festival at the Bell Harbor International Conference Center in Seattle, Washington.
Featured in this interview is one of the festival’s very special guests, Gillian Goddard of Sun Eaters Organics.
Gillian’s chocolate company is unique in that it’s main goals are not that of money or taste. Gillian simply uses this company as template for her activism, paying attention and trying to help oppressed cacao farmers and their families.
In this interview she answers what aspects of her business are the most important to pay attention to, what she would look for in the replacement of herself, and speaks about the differences in ethics between cultures. Enjoy!!
