ABOUT NOMO
NOMO was born out of our passion to create a brand with truly delicious flavours that everyone can enjoy, and we go to exceptional lengths to ensure that NOMO bars are Vegan & Free From Dairy, Gluten, Egg & Nuts.
NOMO is owned and carefully made by Kinnerton Confectionery. We have been manufacturing great tasting Free From chocolate since 1999 (Nut Safe chocolates since 1999, Vegan and free from since 2005) and have built a reputation as a trusted and safe company that allergy and intolerance sufferers can rely on for uncompromisingly delicious chocolate. We wholeheartedly believe that everyone, no matter their dietary limitations, should be able to enjoy great tasting chocolate. This ethos is at the heart of what we do and what we develop at our factory in Norfolk, UK.
We all experience FOMO (Fear of Missing Out) at some stage in our lives but have you heard of NOMO (No Missing Out)? Imagine suddenly feeling included in an enjoyable experience or activity that everyone else is taking part in – for example eating delicious chocolate. Many people with specific dietary requirements commonly feel as though they have to miss out on delicious chocolate, and our vision is to make sure that no one has to miss out again!
The metalized film we use to keep our bars fresh cannot currently be recycled, however we are always looking for new and innovative eco-friendly packaging materials to make this a possibility in the future.
We have sent zero waste to landfill for the last 8 years and as a business we are committed to being a part of the solution when it comes to making the planet fit for future generations. Do you have any suggestions on how we could improve our packaging? Get in touch
NOMO is not fair trade; however, we are committed to improving the livelihoods of cocoa farmers and their communities. We buy Rainforest Alliance Certified™ cocoa through the 'mass balance' model of production. This allows us to buy cocoa from Rainforest Alliance Certified farms, which means that farmers, the environment, and cocoa-growing communities will benefit from our increasing purchases! If you would like to find out more about mass balance cocoa sourcing visit www.ra.org/mb
Rainforest Alliance Certified cocoa is sourced for a particular brand if the volume of cocoa purchased by their supply chain from certified farms matches the volume of cocoa used in the manufacturing of that specific brand. This means that while certified cocoa might not end up in every chocolate bar because of certified and non-certified ingredients mixing at facility or the facilities of the company’s suppliers, the supply chain is still buying cocoa from Rainforest Alliance Certified farms and including this ingredient in the overall manufacturing of its chocolate recipes.
The Rainforest Alliance works together with companies, farmers, foresters, communities, and consumers to amplify the voices of farmers and forest communities, improve livelihoods, protect biodiversity, and help people mitigate and adapt to climate change in bold and effective ways. If you would like to read more about how Rainforest Alliance supports farmers then visit www.rainforest-alliance.org.
As a business we also have a detailed CSR statement, so if you would like to find out more about our sustainability goals please click here.
There are three key areas that we feel as a business, we could make the most impact in: – Ethical sourcing and supply: Chocolate is one of life’s great pleasures. We want to ensure a continued supply for future generations.
– Community engagement: We encourage employee initiatives that support charities/communities, and we donate 1% of yearly profits to projects close to our values.
– Consumer wellbeing. We know consumers put a lot of trust into the products we manufacture, and we are proud to ensure that all of our products are responsibly made with good ingredients in a safe environment. Allergen management is one of the cornerstones of our brand values and we pride ourselves on providing our customers with reliable and consistent information about allergens in our products.
As a business we take allergens extremely seriously and everyone who works at NOMO has this at the forefront of their thinking. We go to extraordinary lengths to ensure that our products are safe and free-from the major allergens dairy, gluten, egg and nuts (tree nuts and peanuts).
This robust process starts at the very beginning with our suppliers, and we ensure all NOMO ingredients are free from dairy, gluten, egg, tree nuts and peanuts. Our factory in Norfolk, UK, has a specially segregated part of the factory to craft NOMO. The whole process is carefully managed by our operations and technical teams and is underpinned by detailed allergen management procedures.
If you still have any questions or concerns, we encourage you get in touch via email at Hello@NOMOChoc.com
Our chocolate is carefully crafted in the UK, using cocoa sourced responsibly and ethically from Africa.
No, NOMO is not currently certified organic.
These are a closely guarded secret unfortunately, however rest assured we only use natural flavourings for NOMO.
Inulin is a type of carbohydrate. It is found in many plants including dried chicory root, which is what we use in NOMO. Whilst it has a sweet taste and a creamy texture, it’s hard for us to digest making it a great source of fibre so it also has a prebiotic effect. All of this makes it a great substitute for milk in chocolate without adding more sugar or fat.
Emulsifiers keep ingredients from separating and provide a smooth texture in our NOMO choc bars
NOMO does not contain soya ingredients in the recipes. Whilst we take every precaution to avoid cross contamination with Soya, please be aware we do not declare these products as ‘Soya Free’.
NOMO Caramel & Sea Salt and NOMO Fruit & Crunch bars are made with our delicious NOMO Creamy Choc recipe.
