“C’est du Zokola”!<\/p>\n

The name 'Zokola' is pronounced with an emphasis on the last syllable and refers to a childish pronunciation of the French word 'chocolat\"' <\/span><\/p>\n

This has not least to do with the location of our company: 5 km from the French border. The name also appeals to our passion for this delicious product.<\/p>\n

In 2006 & 2007 Sylvie Allaeys followed the \"Chocolatier\" training in Syntra West. Soon she received the first orders from friends and family, which pushed her more and more towards \u201can independent company\u201d. In October 2007 she became a chocolatier as a secondary profession<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

In 2011, Sylvie decides to go full-time for her chocolate business. Initially, sales are mainly through weekly markets. The vendor van, purchased in the second half of 2012, could also be used as a shop. In September 2011, the idea raises to go all out for regional products with the launch of ' Belgian hopcones' on the occasion of the 3-yearly Hop Festival in Poperinge. This praline will be the first recognized 100% West Flemish regional product from Zokola.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

With the start of the WWI commemorative events, the idea of \u200b\u200bmaking the Chocolate Poppy also grows. With the permission of The Royal British Legion Zokola designs a replica of the paper version. This tasty and beautiful praline sees the light in early November 2012.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

At the beginning of 2013, her husband Bart Devos joined the business. '100% West- Flemish' gave the opportunity to supply Carrefour for the regional products department. This made them take the step towards supplying more and more to the retail sector. Also in this year, the Warandehof & Zokola find each other in the creation of a rhubarb praline. The third recognized regional product!<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

Gradually, the Zokola products were sold more and more in retail. One of the top products appears to be the Angel kisses. These were first purchased. In 2016 Zokola decided to produce them itself. This turned out to be a hit! The Angel kisses also found their way to resellers and created so a larger sales market for the company. Meanwhile, more than 30 varieties are already on the market. The work volume is increasing and it is therefore decided to hire a part-time worker Anja. She turned out to be multi-deployable: she is performant aswell in packing as in production!<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Juni 2023: de nieuwe productielijn est arriv\u00e9! Een volledige nieuwe chocolademachine voor 80kg, overtrekband en transportband met koeltunnel om nog veel meer chocozoentjesen snijpralines te produceren!

Ook 2024 wordt een jaar vol uitdagingen. Wij werken hard verder aan ons suikervrij assortiment: suikerarme drag\u00e9es vervoegen ons assortiment. Zokola gaat ook een samenwerking aan\u00a0 met @dvolicious die een suikerarme advokaat ontwerpt. Ook een nieuwe verpakking is in de maak voor al onze producten: gebruiksvriendlijk, aantrekkelijk, transportwaardig en betaalbaar voor al onze klanten in binnen- en buitenland.\u00a0<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

2025 wordt opnieuw een uitdagend jaar voor Zokola: in de lijn van onze keuze voor het suikerarme lanceren wij een volledig nieuwe productlijn: suikerarme granola, gekarameliseerd met Zusto & vanille, een echte smaakbom!<\/p>

Net voor het verlof komt er ook een volautomatisch spuitsysteem voor onze chocozoenen en breiden we tevens onze exportportefeuille uit.
