It is with great pride that we announce our victory as the grand champion of the ATOP Pearl Awards 2022 in the Best in Tourism Promotions (Gifts and Souvenirs Category), held on October 27, 2022. This prestigious recognition serves as a testament to our unwavering dedication not only in crafting exquisite chocolates but also in creating opportunities for our local community.
Winning this esteemed award not only brings honor to our city but also serves as an invitation for both local and international visitors to experience our products and immerse themselves in our rich culture.
Through our products, we aim to amplify diverse voices within our community and are immensely grateful for the chance to positively impact people's lives. Additionally, we are honored recipients of the Pasalamat ug Pasidungog award for "Celebrating Partnerships and Recognizing Tourism Heroes in the midst of Challenges," presented by DOT Eastern Visayas in 2023.
Moreover, we proudly stood as finalists in the Best Tourism Promotions - Gifts & Souvenirs (Food) category at the Tatak Ormoc 2021 Business Awards. These accomplishments serve as catalysts for our ongoing pursuit of excellence in the industry and reinforce our commitment to serving our community with distinction.
Beyond our passion for crafting chocolates, we operate as a socially conscious entity dedicated to fostering positive change within our local community. Collaborating with local artists, cacao farmers, and individuals from the PDL (Persons Deprived of Liberty), we actively support our advocacy for social responsibility. A tangible demonstration of this commitment is evident in our Alto Peak Café's “batirols,” meticulously handcrafted by our partner PDLs, showcasing their exceptional skills. Equally, we take pride in featuring the exquisite hand-woven bags produced by a women's cooperative, alongside exclusive artworks crafted by Ormoc's talented local artists.
Our motto, "Go Local, In Global," encapsulates our vision for the future of our enterprise. With unwavering passion and dedication, we collaborate with local partners to deliver chocolates of unparalleled quality, meeting international standards. Our aim is to seamlessly blend global competitiveness with local rootedness, believing that the fusion of these two realms yields something truly remarkable and impactful.
