Region and Country Tumaco, Nariño Department, Colombia Story Once known for its Criollo cacao varieties, Colombia gradually replaced these with modern hybrids to foster productivity and hardiness while maintaining interesting flavours. Nowadays, Colombia is actively seeking to bring cacao to the same legendary levels as its coffee. Organized cacao producer groups and the government have been supporting efforts to plot genetic varieties in the country, to improve genetic stocks and their post harvesting processes. Tumaco, a region in the South Pacific of Colombia, has been one of the most affected areas by the presence of paramilitary groups and coca cultivation in the country. Cocoa offers the local population a means to improve their livelihoods through a fair and sustainable income. Through cocoa, the people seek a future free of violence and other problems related to the cultivation of illicit crops.
