Cacao Tour to Polewali, Indonesia (August 20-27, 2017)

In August 20-27, 2017, I participated the Cacao Tour hosted by Dari K Inc. as interpreter and coordinator, to Polewali Mandar, West Sulawesi, Indonesia. Not very well known, but Indonesia is the second largest cacao production country in the world.

55 participants from Japan as consumers of chocolate were probably the first time to meet farmers who produce cacao as the material of chocolate. During this tour, consumers and producers on cacao would mutually respect and say thank you to each other.
