Shops and café

 

We welcome any cooperation and will be glad to support any initiative based on our products, yet we do have some requirements that you should take into account and that relate to way of storing out products.

(Conditions are different for chocolate bars and chocolate candies)

 Chocolate bars:

  1. Temperature under which chocolate bars are stored should not exceed 20-22С, while air humidity must be under 60%. Bars are not recommended for storing in the refridgerator. They are not afraid of low temperatures per se, but will catch condensed moisture while being carried from cold to warmth. In the latter case humidity and sharp change of temperature will provoke acceleration of oxidation, which in turn can cause deterioration both in the sight of the products and their taste.

If your premises are well-conditioned then no additional equipment is needed to store and sell chocolate bars.

  1. We do not ship chocolate bars for consignment, yet if you do have some of our bars unsold we can repurchase them under certain conditions.
  2. If you need a special type of chocolate that better answers specifics of your operations we can develop a proprietary design according to your request. The minimum order size is 2 kg, possible bars’ weight is 100, 50 and 5 grams.

 Cost of packing depends on specifics of your inquiry.

  1. We recommend to start sales of our chocolate with tasting sessions. We will carry out a free tasting for you at your premises for your customers. Tasting sessions appeal to both existing customers and the new customers that would be attracted to your premises following tasting adds.
  2. We carry out an obligatory tasting session for your personnel before the first shipment.
  3. Along with the first shipment you’ll get a free tasting sets which you will be able to offer your customers on your premises. The sets will be replenished in accordance with the sales volume.

 Chocolate candies

  1. Chocolate candies must be stored in either dedicated showcases or refridgerators under temperature of 5-7C.
  2. We can offer you our showcases subject to preliminary arrangement.
  3. We do not ship chocolate candies for consignment and we are not able to buy back unsold candies.
  4. We can manufacture candies to every taste, hence we recommend the following course of actions for the process of candies’ ordering::

 a) make an educated guess on how many types of (and which) candies you would like to offer your customers, and relate your thoughts to us. Your plans can be expressed both in terms of particular fillings for the candies or in terms of description of desired qualities of future candies, e.g. ‘vegan’, ‘crispy’, ‘marmalade’ etc.

 b) estimate what time interval you are going to plan the sale of candies for and what should the order size be.

 c) do you have specific requirement to appearance and weight of the candies: shape, colour etc.

 d) assign the desired price for the candies. Our price list for a candy is 2 euro apiece but we can make candies both more and less expensive by changing their design or weight.

 e) drop us a letter with your plans and requests – we will develop designs and set up a meeting for discussion of details. We are extremely open-minded and strive to make all our customers happy.

  • every batch of candies is shipped with both date of production and due date notifications on the package. Not following the agreed sales time intervals and recommended storage conditions can represent a basis for a cease of cooperation.

 Other types of cooperation:

 If you would like to collaborate with us, but cannot yet ensure pre-conditions for sales of chocolate, you can always start by selling the following products:

  1. Cacao tea
  2. Cacao beans of different sorts
