Advancing cacao traits with CRISPR 2.0 to help rescue a collapsing US$310 billion industry
The Super-Cacao delivers unique, multiple traits in a single variety, drastically accelerating improvements to industry-critical areas:
Crisis-Ready
Resilience
Enhanced resistance to drought, heat, and major diseases stabilizes yields and protects farming families from climate and biological threats.
Ethical
Production
Improved plant architecture and pod emergence enable mechanized harvesting, significantly reducing the industry’s reliance on manual labor and helping to end child labor.
Enhanced Quality
And Safety
Our varieties are designed to eliminate toxic heavy metal uptake (cadmium and lead) and to manage caffeine levels, expanding market access and consumer safety.
This comprehensive approach offers unparalleled added value. By focusing on editing only native cacao genes, our varieties are non-GMO thus fostering consumer acceptance
Through partnerships, licensing, and long-term collaborations, we aim to deliver consistent value across the supply chain.
Backed by a strong technology foundation and a clear regulatory path, The Super Cacao improves sustainability, yields and quality, strengthening the future of cacao agriculture worldwide.
Join us in the rescue mission for the $310 billion chocolate industry.
