Alter Eco Noir Pérou Éclats de Gingembre

Alter Eco is a pioneer in the fair trade and organic food movement, originally founded in France in 1998 by Tristan Lecomte. The company focuses on ethical sourcing, sustainable farming practices, and direct partnerships with small-scale cooperatives. This specific chocolate bar, featuring Peruvian dark chocolate with ginger pieces, is part of their commitment to high-quality, bio-certified confectionery.

While the brand has its roots in France, it has expanded significantly and now operates under different ownership structures globally. The French branch (featured in this packaging) is part of the Distriborg group, which was later rebranded as Bjorg et Compagnie. This collective is owned by the Dutch multinational Ecotone. Despite the brand's French origin and Dutch corporate parentage, the actual production of their chocolate bars predominantly takes place in Switzerland, a country renowned for its chocolate manufacturing expertise.
