The Liberation difference

Most snack brands buy from farmers. We’re co-owned by them. From Nicaragua to Malawi to the Bolivian Amazon, the people who grow our food share in the business, the decisions and the profits.

  • Peanut farmers in Nicaragua. Cashew growers in India. Brazil nut gatherers in Bolivia. Smallholders in El Salvador and Malawi. Through the International Nut Cooperative, they’re shareholders in Liberation. They shape our strategy, vote on the big decisions and share in what we earn. Not suppliers. Owners.

  • In food, most of the money is made far from the farm, in factories and boardrooms. We’re moving it back. In Peru, we’re developing Amazon products with Candela, from Brazil nut oil to chocolate-coated nuts. In Indonesia, smallholders are turning their own coconuts into coconut sugar. And wherever we can, we buy finished, ready-to-sell products straight from the regions that grow them.

  • Guaranteed minimum prices protect farmers when markets crash. The Fairtrade premium goes to the co-op, and the farmers decide together how to spend it. We don’t drop the standard when it gets hard.

  • Everything we make is plant-based and palm-oil-free. No exceptions, no small print. Nuts are far less carbon-intensive than beef or even coffee, and we’re cutting our own footprint too. Our packaging film is now 60% lighter per pack, and carbon from our transport and packaging fell 4.4% in 2025.

Questions, answered.

Everything buyers, journalists and curious eaters most often ask us about the brand, the farmers and the model.

  • Smallholder farmers do. 50% of Liberation is owned by farmer co-operatives through the International Nut Cooperative. They influence decisions and help shape our strategy. The other 49% is held by social enterprises who share the same vision.

  • Every Liberation product is Fairtrade certified, so farmers get at least the Fairtrade minimum price plus the Fairtrade premium to invest in their communities. We buy directly from farmer-run organisations and aim to go beyond certification. In 2024–25 our sourcing generated $217K in Fairtrade premium.

  • With smallholder farmers around the world: peanuts from Nicaragua, cashews from India and Burkina Faso, Brazil nuts from Bolivia and Peru, and macadamias from Malawi, among others.
