Femi is the Co-Founder/CEO of Loshes Chocolate. Being self driven and passionate, it was time for Femi to add real value and provide impactful solutions to bridge gaps that have existed within our clime for a while. The gap had birthed the need to create innovative solutions towards sustainable and development goals, thereby utilising the collective attributes of people and channeling these energies to drive value within an existing value chain.
Oyedipe had her eyes on a job she was going to start when she came back from the U.S in 2015, and it was supposed to take her on a totally different career path. When it didn’t come through, she was upset and disappointed. It was in the midst of this disappointment, that the inspiration to make chocolates came.
Her current project is transforming cocoa, a natural and readily available resource, into fine chocolate products, creating employment, improving communities, promoting good health and wellbeing, improving gender balance and value across the entire cocoa and manufacturing value chain.
