Auro Chocolate was founded in 2015 by Kelly Go and Mark Ocampo, two Filipino food lovers who met in Chicago and returned home with a shared mission: to make a difference through fine chocolate. The brand's name draws from "Au," the chemical symbol for gold, and "oro," the Filipino and Spanish word for the same, a fitting nod to Auro's pursuit of refining Philippine cacao and honouring the farmers behind every bean.
As a tree-to-bar chocolate maker, Auro goes beyond simply sourcing cacao. The brand works directly with Filipino farming communities across the country, paying a premium above world market price and providing training in good agricultural practices to help farmers improve both yield and quality over time. This close involvement in every step of the process, from farm to factory, allows Auro to guarantee consistency and traceability in every bar.
The result is a range of chocolate bars, cacao products, and baking ingredients known for bold, unique tropical flavours, recognised through more than 77 international awards from bodies like the Academy of Chocolate and International Chocolate Awards.
