Alea Chocolates

Farming, Manufacturing, Café, Retail, Export Alea Chocolates is an award-winning chocolate brand based in Bicol, Philippines, championing sustainability, ethical sourcing, and local farming. From our heritage farm to our café at SM City Legazpi, we craft premium, healthier cacao products—sugar-free and proudly Filipino. Our success is rooted in quality, innovation, and community. We’re a recognized Key Cacao Processor by the Department of Trade and Industry (DTI) Bicol and trusted by Michelin-starred chefs and global culinary leaders. In 2024, we joined the Philippine Tablea Competition for the first time, proudly representing Bicol—and made history as the first Bicolano Champion. Our Alea Tsokolate Lemon Latte was judged the country’s best tsokolate drink by top celebrity chefs. This milestone was followed by another national honor: the Presidential Award for Outstanding MSME 2025, where we were nominated by DTI for our excellence in enterprise and impact in the region. We’re also a Partner for Youth Employment with DepEd, providing real work experience and business skills to students who work while studying—empowering the next generation of entrepreneurs. Alea’s integrated model—from farm to café—continues to serve both people and planet. With demand rising for ethical, high-quality cacao, we’re proud to elevate Bicol’s cacao industry and lead sustainable chocolate innovation in Southeast Asia.
