Ep. 26: Is Coronavirus Killing Craft Chocolate?

from Chocolate On The Road · host Max Gandy

While Covid-19 (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coronavirus) has ravaged populations around the world, it’s also nearly halted the global economy. Almost every industry around the world is heavily affected, most often in the negative, and craft chocolate is no exception. Not only are chocolate sales (https://damecacao.com/where-buy-craft-chocolate-online/) directly affected, but the supply chain has been interrupted, potentially for many years to come. So who are the supply chain players who’ve been most & least affected? How might this shift over the next year or two? To find some answers to these queries, I spoke with four people involved in various steps of the supply chain, from growing & harvesting cacao to making & selling chocolate. Today’s episode explores the ways in which Coronavirus has changed the landscape of fine chocolate as we knew it just a few months before, and what you as a consumer can do to help.
