Sustainability represents a development that meets the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs. Reuse of materials will result in less waste and minimize damage to the environment. Our focus is to ensure a sustainable future, and we are continuously working on how we can optimize our processes & packaging to become even more sustainable through Choci Tokyo.
OUR VISION
We currently have six goals as Chocolatier and Confectionery professionals that we think have the possibility to really make an impact.
Things CHOCI does to contribute for a better world
CHOCI aspires to contribute to the 17 sustainable Development Goals proposed by the United Nations. Within our organisation, we have been especially focusing on the following six goals:
#2 Zero Hunger & #12 Responsible Consumption and Production Within the limits of CHOCI’s influence our own goals for hunger are restricted to our production methods. We actively attempt to reduce our footprint on food consumption through our implementation of an efficient and sustainable production system. Our big focus is on reducing waste though expiry dates of ingredients and products we products. This is aligned with our aim to provide the freshest products for maximum flavour, texture and visual presentation.
#5 Gender Equality, #8 Decent Work and Economic Growth & Reduced Inequalty Gender equality comes naturally to the team and especially the founder with only daughters in the family! Except for the founder, the management team is all woman despite our focus of having no walls between genders when hiring talented staff. We believe we pay meaningfully above average wages to our team. As an example of our guiding philosophy of reduced inequality, we actively discourage overtime and encourage our team to have a wholistic view to their lives. Nurturing and training the team to grow the business in a deliberate and measured way whilst creating innovative exciting products is part of the ethos of CHOCI. We pride ourselves on our work environment being equally warm and exceptional for staff as well as customers.
#17 Partnerships for the Goals CHOCI has partnered with JAM an organisation at the forefront of sustainable issues and awareness in Japan. We are unsure how this partnership will proceed, however the insights we have already received indicates we are on the correct SDG path and we hope to learn and progress our SDG capabilities and skills.
