The separation or segregation of cocoa is a process that takes place after harvesting additionally, it consists of separating the cocoa beans according to their quality and characteristics, also to find their origin (where the cocoa came from) and where it went to (container registration). During the separation process, the cocoa beans are classified according to their size, shape, impurity and quality, whether it is conventional or certified and/or if it comes from farms belonging to our programs.
This process is carried out to obtain homogeneous and high quality cocoa beans suitable for the manufacture of different products.

It is about following the path of cocoa from where it is grown and harvested on the farm, through processing and distribution, documentation and compliance with laws and regulations of each place of origin and destination, until it reaches the consumer.
