About Coopercabruca

Coopercabruca is a cooperative that supports small-scale cacao farmers in Bahia, Brazil, working together to preserve traditional farming methods while ensuring sustainable livelihoods. The cooperative brings together regenerative cacao producers who share knowledge, maintain quality standards, and support each other in producing exceptional cacao.

Through Coopercabruca, member farms contribute to a network of regenerative cacao producers dedicated to preserving the region's agricultural heritage. The cooperative's collaborative spirit reflects the essence of Bahia's cacao farming community, where individual farms work together to maintain quality standards and support sustainable practices.

Coopercabruca was instrumental in Agroverse's early shipments, including our foundational proof-of-concept shipment (AGL0) and first commercial imports (AGL1, AGL2). These early partnerships established the transparency standards and direct relationships that define Agroverse's commitment to regenerative cacao sourcing.
