The three major chocolate makers which produce their chocolates in Madagascar using locally sourced cocoa are Chocolaterie Robert, Chocolaterie Cinagra and Chocolaterie Colbert. Apart from these locally based producers, various chocolate makers in other countries also use Madagascan cocoa, but which has been shipped to the factory location where their respective chocolates and brands are produced and packaged.

In cases where producers begin their chocolate production process using whole cocoa beans exported from Madagascar, as opposed to pre-processed and crushed cocoa, they qualify as “bean-to-bar” chocolate makers using Madagascar sourced cocoa. Additionally, some specially branded products are made and packaged in Madagascar by either Cinagra or Chocolaterie Robert for export only on behalf of resellers in other countries.
