Concept

From GRAMMYs gift bags to Whole Foods, we help women with a sweet tooth satisfy their craving!

Story

Hi, I’m Dr. Tabatha, ND, the founder of Good Girl Chocolate, a certified Woman-Owned bean-to-bar chocolate brand. Inspired by my own health journey, I created Good Girl Chocolate to offer indulgent, dairy-free chocolate made with clean ingredients. We were recently selected to expand into 150 Whole Foods Market stores, which is one of the key reasons we’re raising funds. Your support will help us scale production and share our mission nationwide.

The Impact

Good Girl Chocolate is at an exciting turning point. Currently, we produce 10,000 bars per month by hand, but with our recent selection to expand into 150 Whole Foods stores, we need to scale our production to 100,000 bars per month to meet demand. Your contribution will make a direct impact by helping us invest in the equipment necessary to increase capacity—allowing us to wrap multiple bars at once and produce batches more efficiently without sacrificing quality.

This expansion isn’t just about chocolate; it’s about creating opportunities. By scaling our operations, we can create more jobs, support sustainable practices, and share our dairy-free, handcrafted chocolate with communities nationwide.

We’ve already proven our ability to succeed: we’ve been featured in the GRAMMYs Gift Bag twice, launched on QVC as the first dairy-free chocolate brand, and won the Whole Foods Market Pitch Competition in the Southwest Region. With your support, we can meet this next challenge and continue to grow, bringing indulgence and wellness to more people.

Risks & Challenges

At Good Girl Chocolate, we are dedicated to maintaining the highest quality standards, but scaling comes with challenges. Currently, every bar is handcrafted and wrapped one by one. While this process ensures attention to detail, it limits our ability to meet growing demand, especially with our recent selection to expand into 150 Whole Foods stores.

To scale, we need equipment that can wrap multiple bars at once and machinery that allows us to produce multiple bars simultaneously. These tools are essential for increasing efficiency and ensuring we can meet the needs of our new and expanding retail partnerships without compromising the quality that defines Good Girl Chocolate.

With years of experience running a bean-to-bar chocolate company and a proven track record of overcoming operational challenges, we are confident in our ability to make this transition smoothly. Your support will help us invest in the equipment and resources needed to achieve sustainable growth and share our chocolate with more people nationwide. Thank you for believing in our mission!

Other Ways You Can Help

We understand that not everyone can contribute financially, but you can still play a huge role in helping us grow! Here’s how:

  • Spread the Word: Share our campaign with your friends, family, and networks. Your voice can help us reach more people who share a passion for chocolate and wellness.
  • Follow and Engage: Connect with us on social media, share our posts, and help us build a community of chocolate lovers who believe in our mission.
  • Use Indiegogo Tools: Take advantage of Indiegogo’s share tools to post about our campaign on social media or send it directly to someone who might want to support us.
