Palo Santo is a family business engaged in the production and export of high quality agricultural products worldwide since 1991, however, growing cacao as a family tradition goes back to 1977. We are leaders in agricultural innovation in cacao production. We offer cacao in different forms: beans, pulp, pods, nibs, mass, powder and butter. Hacienda Palo Santo is a cacao and derivatives farm located on the Cerecita Valley near the Ecuadorian coast, one hour away from Guayaquil. Palo Santo is owned and daily managed by a family of agronomists who have been involved in the cacao production over three generations, developing innovative production techniques to protect resources and increase productivity while working on rigorous post-harvest controls with the needed infrastructure to produce the highest quality and homogenous cacao beans and pulp.
