Valdez Cacao is a family business deeply rooted in the rich cocoa heritage of the Dominican Republic. Specializing in the cultivation and processing of premium quality cocoa, their plantations are located in Castillo, a municipality in the Duarte province – the heart of the national cocoa industry. This fertile region produces approximately 62% of the country's cocoa and is highly valued in global markets for the superior quality, unique flavor profile, and exceptional aroma of its beans.
Valdez Cacao's origins trace back to 1961, when Mr. Porfirio Valdez, driven by a pioneering spirit and a deep connection to the land, launched what would become a multi-generational family enterprise.

Valdez is socially involved in supporting the local population; the farm provides work, offers social services, has built two aqueducts, a baseball field, and connected the primary school to the internet.
