At Hotel Chocolat, their Planet Pledge sets out their aim for all packaging to be 100% recyclable or reusable. They are currently  over 90% of the way there, and are working hard to continue to reduce and rethink their packaging to achieve this pledge

As well as setting their Planet Pledge, they have also set a commitment for all direct operations to be Net Zero Carbon by 2030. It’s a tall order, but one they are committed to fulfilling as a business

A big part of protecting our planet and our environment is by practicing biodiversity. At Hotel Chocolat, they believe that the cacao plant is a champion of biodiversity. On their Rabot Estate in St Lucia, they use gentle farming approaches to grow and farm the cacao. This ensures biodiversity, resulting in better cacao in the long-term and helping the planet
