Tony's Chocolonely 32% Milk Chocolate Bar

Tony's Chocolonely is a Dutch confectionery brand founded in 2005 by investigative journalist Teun van de Keuken (Teun) after he discovered the widespread use of child labor and slavery on cocoa farms in West Africa. The brand is famous for its mission to make all chocolate 100% slave-free and its uniquely unevenly divided chocolate bar, which represents the inequality in the chocolate industry.

While the brand is headquartered in Amsterdam and maintains strong Dutch heritage, most of its chocolate is manufactured in Belgium by the Barry Callebaut factory under high ethical standards. The brand is currently owned by a group of investors through Tony’s Chocolonely Investment (TCI) B.V., with significant stakes held by Verlinvest (a Belgian investment firm) and other private individuals. The company is a certified B Corporation, as indicated by the logo next to the ISBN/EAN on the packaging.
