About
GEPA
Established in 1975, GEPA is a prominent German producer with a long history in the chocolate industry. Based in Germany, the company has its chocolate made by an industrial manufacturer and focuses on large-scale distribution and fair trade advocacy.
The production process at GEPA includes conching, a step the maker discloses in their technical descriptions. Beyond this mention of the conching stage, the specific methods remain internal to the producer.
The foundation of the company is built upon ethical procurement. GEPA maintains a rigorous approach to sourcing, holding multiple certifications and actively making direct-trade claims to connect the production process with the farmers and cooperatives involved.
