Pg. 3 - "While cocoa is sourced from multiple regions, Cote d’Ivoire and Ghana remain the focus of our sustainable cocoa sourcing efforts, including the implementation of Child Labor Monitoring & Remediation Systems (CLMRS). Based on identified risks, Hershey has committed all cocoa from Cote d’Ivoire and Ghana in our supply chain will be sourced directly through our suppliers by 2025. We also committed to 100% CLMRS coverage of our directly sourced cocoa in these two countries

by 2025. We have found 0 instances of forced labor in our supply chain to date."
