CHACHA
THAILAND
Chacha is a producer of organic rice and chia-based pasta and retailer of the Perfect Earth Foods brand. Chacha sources from marginalized hilltribe communities in Thailand, near the Burma border, training them in sustainable farming to help double their income while preserving their unique way of life. Through its work, Chacha is able to restore community vitality by providing stable incomes to families and staving off migration to cities out of economic necessity. Chacha is also restoring soil health in the region as it replaces conventional farming with organic practices. Beneficial Returns provided Chacha with three loans to help launch and expand an organic instant noodle line.
