Our Commitment to Sustainability
We aim to further develop all Sustainable Development Goals. But for these 7 SDG's we go above and beyond. They are an important factor in every decision we make and are embedded in our company mission.
As a result of our efforts in these domains our company, Chocdecor, was certified by the United Nations as an SDG Champion.
We are very proud to announce that Chocdecor has officially been recognized as a “Factory of the Future” for the next three years (2026–2028).

We are actively committed to developing environmentally friendly packaging solutions. Our goal is to reduce packaging and make it fully recyclable. This has already resulted in the following sustainable innovations:
Biodegradable paper lollipop sticks
Made from sustainable paper instead of plastic
100% mono-materialTransparant bag and ingredient label made from 100% recyclable material
All cardboard trays and displays are FSC-certifiedAll cardboard used is from responsibly managed forests
Since 2023, we have been committed to science-based climate targets through the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). In concrete terms, this means that we are committed to reducing Scope 1 and Scope 2 greenhouse gas emissions by 42% by 2030 compared to the 2020 baseline year, and to measuring and reducing Scope 3 emissions.
Our climate impact is largely determined by what happens before and after our production. Purchased goods and services account for 96% of our Scope 3 emissions, followed by the handling of packaging at the end of its life cycle and downstream transport. Our own operations – refrigerant leaks, company vehicles, commuting and business travel – account for a mere 0.007% in total, illustrating where our real climate challenge lies: in the emissions we do not directly control but can influence through our choices in procurement, packaging and transport.Translated with DeepL.com (free version)
We have emission reduction plan that we are implementing and that we monitor, review and update periodically. Until we reach zero greenhouse gas emissions, remaining emissions are compensated through investment in several Gold standard projects: renewable energy projects, afforestation and reforestation projects, effficient cookstoves in Africa.
After third-party audit, we are certified against the Climate Activator Certification Standard of Anthesis B.V. for greenhouse gas emissions of scope 1, scope 2 and specific aspects of scope 3, being business travel and employee commuting. We are therefore proudly using the Climate Activator trademark.

At ChocDecor, we believe that happy people make the best chocolate. ‘Let’s Make People Happy’ is therefore more than just a slogan: it’s how we work together, lead and look out for one another. When people feel good at work, they contribute to what we create together with greater pride, commitment and quality.
Our employees are at the heart of everything we do. We are building a respectful, safe and inclusive working environment where everyone feels heard and valued. We see diversity as a strength and we pay attention to differences in culture and communication. For us, wellbeing is a shared responsibility. We invest in physical and mental wellbeing through support, health initiatives and attention to workload. With tools such as the emotion dashboard, managers stay in touch with their teams and we make timely adjustments.
We also provide opportunities for growth. Training, responsibility and initiative are central, because learning and development contribute to both job satisfaction and self-confidence. Recognition and connection are found in small daily gestures and in celebrating successes together. As one team, we work on chocolate we are proud of and that brings joy to people worldwide.
