Cocoa Week 2026
Last month, during London Cocoa Week, ECOM had the pleasure of hosting a drinks reception at the Tower of London, bringing together colleagues, partners, and industry peers for an evening of connection and exchange.
Taking place alongside one of the cocoa industry’s most important tri-annual gatherings, the FCC Cocoa Dinner, the reception created an additional opportunity to connect during a busy and engaging week for the global cocoa sector.
For the ECOM Cocoa team– ranging from cocoa products and beans, sustainability, logistics, and more– the entire week was a great chance to reconnect with industry partners, exchange views on the evolving market landscape, and discuss the opportunities and challenges shaping today’s cocoa value chain.
With sustainability and long-term resilience continuing to drive conversations across the sector, weeks like this are a strong reminder of the importance of collaboration in building the future of cocoa.
We would like to extend our thanks to The Federation of Cocoa Commerce Limited for hosting such a wonderful evening, and we look forward already to next year’s Cocoa Week.
