01 — Origins

Where our coconuts come from.

CBL sources exclusively from two dedicated origins — Sri Lanka and Indonesia. Not by convenience, but by deliberate choice. Each is selected for its varietal profile, farming heritage, and ability to meet the most demanding certification requirements. Origins are never blended.

Primary Origin

🇱🇰

Sri Lanka

Island of Ceylon · Indian Ocean

Our deepest, oldest sourcing relationship. Sri Lanka's coconut belt spans Kurunegala, Puttalam, and Gampaha — where our biodynamic and Fairtrade practices are most embedded. Home to 3,000+ contracted smallholder farms, built over 35 years.

Single-Origin Integrity

Maintained across every batch, order, and production run — without exception.

I.

Never blended.

Coconuts from Sri Lanka and Indonesia are never mixed within the same product, batch, or production run.

II.

Fully traceable.

Every order is documented back to a single country of origin — auditable at any point in the chain.

III.

Formally certified.

Origin is declared on Certificate of Origin, Phytosanitary Certificate, and Health Certificate — issued per shipment.

Sri Lanka · Primary Origin

Where the coconuts are actually grown.

Not a commodity market purchase. Not a broker relationship. The Kurunegala, Puttalam and Gampaha districts of Sri Lanka's coconut triangle are where CBL's farming network has been embedded for 35 years — biodynamic plots, Fairtrade cooperatives and organic plots that are annually audited, GPS-mapped and fully traceable to farm block level.

02 — How We Farm

Our supply chain is
backward-integrated.

We don't apply certifications on top of standard farming. We build the farm around the practice — biodynamic principles, organic inputs, Fairtrade community structures — from the ground up.

Farming Practices

02

Built from the ground, not the label.

Each practice below is integrated into how we contract farms, train growers, and structure our supply chain — not imposed as a certification layer after the fact.

Farm

certificate-0

Biodynamic Practice — Demeter Framework

The farm as a living organism.

Biodynamic farming isn't a certification we add — it's the philosophy our Sri Lanka growers operate under. Soil biology, crop diversity, and closed-loop nutrients replace what industrial agriculture achieves with chemicals. Zero synthetic inputs, ever.

What this means in practice

Biodynamic preparations build soil microbiology season by season. No synthetic fertilisers, herbicides, or pesticides are permitted. Annual on-farm verification aligned with Demeter International standards. The farm is the certification.

Holistic Organic — Naturland Framework

Organic from the ground, not the label.

Our organic sourcing is structured around Naturland's holistic framework — covering not just how crops are grown, but how workers are treated and how processing facilities operate. Requirements exceed standard EU organic regulation at every stage.

What this means in practice

Organic from seed through processing — no gaps in the chain. Social standards are embedded in farmer contracts, not bolted on. Processing and packaging facilities are independently audited as part of the same framework as the farm.

Fair Sourcing — Fairtrade Framework

Growers earn more because we pay more.

Fairtrade is a structural pricing commitment built into every farmer contract. A guaranteed minimum floor price protects against commodity collapse. A documented Fairtrade Premium goes directly into farmer group accounts — spent on what communities choose.

What this means in practice

Floor price is guaranteed regardless of market fluctuation. Premium funds go into farmer group bank accounts — spent on community infrastructure, equipment, and education. Annual FLOCERT audit verifies every payment. Full ESG documentation available per shipment.
