We started the .pepper..field project in 2018 after we discovered the incredible taste of Kampot pepper and the sad reality of the exploitation of small farmers who grow it in the foothills of the Bokhor Mountains. Since then, the Kampot province in Cambodia has been our second home. Thanks to the 100% fair trade purchase of pepper, we are trying to bring economic growth, self-sufficiency and technological development to the area. Currently, our work has an impact the lives of 2,000 people from these farming families, whose lives we are constantly trying to improve. We are also supported by the Czech Development Agency. We are proud members of the Association for Social Responsibility (CSR) and fulfill the Sustainable Development Goals set by the United Nations. We were awarded 2nd place in the Business category at the SDG Awards in 2021 for our work.

Today, .pepper..field is the only company in the world that pays small growers of Kampot pepper a 100% fair trade price officially set by the KPPA - moreover, they always receive this amount directly from us, in full, without any intermediaries. Everything is done under our full supervision. Our effort is to motivate others to buy pepper from farmers in the same way.
