CAC Pangoa

CAC Pangoa is a cacao co-op in the Junín region of Peru, with more than 700 contributing members. Pangoa originally focused on coffee beans, but in the decades since their founding in 1977, they’ve also become dedicated to preserving their land through the cultivation of cacao. With the help of the organization Conservation Cacao, CAC Pangoa is planting more & more fine flavor varietals of cacao to sustainably and safely replace their ageing coffee. These days, the cooperative only produces organic-certified Fair Trade cacao, and they’re starting to turn to it more & more as their coffee trees feel the devastating effects of climate change.
