A Story of Cacao, Tradition, and Commitment in San Carlos, Antioquia
Our history
Chocofruts is a family business dedicated to the production of artisanal chocolates that transform the cacao from our region into unique products and unforgettable experiences. Located in the municipality of San Carlos, in eastern Antioquia, we work with Fine Aroma Cacao, cultivated by our farming families using the finest processes, following good agricultural practices, and with all the love that characterizes our work.
Our story began in June 2018, when we launched cocoa processing training with the support of SENA (National Sena). In less than six months, we were able to develop our first artisanal products and market them locally. A year later, we took a major step forward by consolidating our company through the Fondo Emprender program, which allowed us to offer high-quality products that are now recognized and appreciated in the market.
Every detail of our work reflects our commitment to tradition, quality, and love for cacao. It's our passion to bring the best of our land to your table!
We have made a 100% commitment to quality so that the Fine Aroma Cocoa that we obtain, and with the love with which we transform it, we create the best flavor.
Luisa Gomez – Founder
Now, our company has evolved into much more than a cocoa processing plant. We offer our customers not only excellent quality products, but also a complete experience centered around the fascinating world of chocolate. From interactive workshops and guided tours to various activities designed to explore and enjoy the magic of cocoa, at Chocofruts we create unique moments that connect tradition, knowledge, and flavor.
We were battered by violence, but the beauty of our land brought us back! To continue writing the history of our municipality, rich in water and now in chocolate made with love.
