Joseph Wilhelm, founder of Rapunzel Naturkost
Daniel Munding
Starting as a young hippie, to the managing director of one of Europe's leading organic producers today. How does one manage this? Joseph Wilhelm talks about the early days in the self-sufficient community, visiting the cocoa farmers in Bolivia by river boat, and much more. You can look forward to exciting, personal and sometimes truly fabulous stories from 50 years of Rapunzel.
Joseph Wilhelm tells us how: From the early days of the self-sufficient community and from his journey in 1976 to the Turkish farmers for the first organic sultanas used in muesli. It was a long journey for the world's first organic chocolate – travelling by riverboat to the cocoa farmers in the Bolivian jungle, via Brazilian sugar cane plantations, to the Swiss chocolate manufacturer required plenty of perseverance and courage. Just like major investments, negotiations or months of marches for a GMO-free world with the “Genfrei Gehen” initiative. You can look forward to exciting, personal and sometimes also fabulous stories from 50 years of Rapunzel.
