Impact Industry Cacao - Update 19

WE HAVE CACAO!

Here’s the main thing I’m thinking about right now.

How do I continue to shave off months and years of time?

Well today we accomplished one of those things, we officially have a small plot with mature cacao trees that we can start doing small scale research and design on.

And crossed off one of the main priorities this week.

Additional Updates

• Aligned on compensation with full-time employee number two, need to paper the docs and get him started next week.

• Sent out advisory share agreeements to key adivsor and excited to share the level of talent we have.

• Working on a VERY secret project that would take our global story telling to the next level.
  

  As we can make more public we will but we are building!

This Week’s Priorities:

• Finalize supply of cacao - this means gaining access cacao for testing and learning purposes. (Sign contract for a farm) ✅

• Plant to Bar - Map out the learning objectives from planting cacao to making chocolate. (One Day in the field)

• Create the launch team and build the foundation (hire 1 new team member)

• Kick-off Global Brand

That’s on top of giving presentation, IN SPANISH, at the Carribean e-commerce growth conference.
