MACAO is a bean-to-bar chocolate maker headquartered in the Netherlands. By managing the transformation from raw cacao to finished bar, the company maintains control over the entire production process.
The production philosophy centers on the technical nuances of small-batch manufacturing. While large-scale manufacturers often prioritize speed, the bean-to-bar approach allows for specific adjustments in roasting and grinding that influence the final texture and aromatic profile of the bars.
Ethical considerations play a role in their supply chain management. MACAO participates in direct trade, a model that establishes a relationship between the maker and the cocoa growers to bypass certain intermediaries in the supply chain.
