Import/Export

Jeff's extensive knowledge of cacao production in Ecuador pairs nicely with his vast expertise and connections in the chocolate industry. His generosity with information, pure enthusiasm, and inherent kindness makes him a valuable player in the world of artisanal chocolate making.

Jeffrey developed the itinerary and lead our Ecole Chocolat Master Program:Exploring Cacao and Chocolate Production in Ecuador. His relationships in Ecuador insured the program delivered an indepth understanding of the challenges, successes and issues experienced by the farmers in preserving fine flavor cacao in Ecuador.

Jeffrey has proven to me his vast knowledge in multiple arenas such as chocolate production, cocoa exporting/importing, cocoa manufacturing/harvest. His personal products are superlative and his knowledge of the in and outs of the cocoa industry are incomparable. Anyone in need of importing cocoa or searching for in depth information on cocoa should contact him.

I had the opportunity to meet and work with Jeff soon after he started his business, Gianduja, in Quito. He is one of the most dedicated and organized business owners I have ever met. While he has everything well planned out he is also constantly analyzing his current situation and making the necessary adjustments to keep his business on track. Jeff is an incredibly knowledgeable and talented chocolatier; his creations are the best filled chocolates I've tasted.
