When Passion Meets Purpose: Tony’s Chocolonely now available on AirAsia MOVE’s Duty-Free Platform
A Christmas Celebration with Sweet Surprises by AirAsia MOVE
KUALA LUMPUR, 24 December 2024 – This festive season just got sweeter! You can now sweeten your journey with Tony’s Chocolonely, the impact-driven chocolate brand, now available on AirAsia MOVE’s Duty-Free platform at exclusive prices, making every journey a little more joyful.
To celebrate this exciting collaboration, AirAsia MOVE team hosted a heartwarming Christmas celebration at KLIA Terminal 2 yesterday, spreading festive cheer to travellers. Guests arriving at the departure hall and luggage carousel area were surprised with special gift boxes featuring Tony’s Chocolonely and AirAsia MOVE duty-free products, a lively Christmas performance by the AirAsia MOVE team, and an appearance by our very own Santa Claus, Tony Fernandes. It was a memorable celebration filled with fun, laughter, and sweet surprises to everyone who joined us!
Tony’s Chocolonely exists to end exploitation in cocoa. Today, there are 1,56 million children working on cocoa farms in Ghana and Cote d’Ivoire, and 80 to 90% of tropical forest are cut down of which 1/3 because of cocoa farming. The root cause of these issues is that cocoa farmers cannot earn a living income by farming cocoa. Therefore, Tony's chocolonely is committed to pay farmers a higher price for 100% traceable cocoa. With incredibly tasty chocolate and unequally divided bars, the brand shows the world that chocolate can be made differently. However, Tony's can’t achieve their goals alone. Only together, the industry can be changed globally.
This collaboration was sparked by Tony Fernandes’ viral LinkedIn post about the Tony’s Chocolonely brand which quickly led both teams from AirAsia and Tony’s Chocolonely to spring into action to make this collaboration a reality. This is the first time AirAsia will be selling duty-free chocolates and is also proud to be the first Asian airline to sell Tony’s Chocolonely chocolates onboard its flights.
Tan Sri Tony Fernandes, CEO of Capital A, shared, “Hosting the Christmas celebration today has been a joyful experience. This event is not just a celebration but also a heartfelt way to thank all our guests for their continued support.
“Everyone around me knows how much I love chocolates, and it was a slice of a dream come true when I came across this chocolate brand that shares my name. I love even more their mission to help end exploitation in cocoa plantations and create 100% slave-free chocolate. I’m proud that the two teams have collaborated to offer these ethically made treats on our duty-free platform and onboard. I invite our guests to pre-book before you fly to get a taste of Tony’s guilt free chocolate,” he added.
Everyone can now pre-book Tony’s Chocolonely chocolates directly on the duty-free shopping platform and enjoy an exclusive 25% discount on all Tony’s Chocolonely’s chocolates from today until 31 Dec 2024!
