ETHNIC PORTRAIT
Portrait of an Antanosy woman “Those of the island”, is the literal translation of the name of the ethnic group, living in the South-East region of the Big Island. Pirates and sailors left a deep mark on their history.
MENAKAO
Since 2013, Menakao has been highlighting Malagasy know-how and diversity in Tree-to-Bar chocolate, using the best beans from Madagascar and selecting the finest local ingredients. An ethically committed brand which, by transforming fine cocoa into chocolate in its country of origin, allows the local added value to be multiplied by four. Less than 5% of the cocoa produced in Madagascar is processed on the island, the Menakao plates are part of this. At the heart of Menakao chocolates, there are women and men!
It is therefore quite natural that they wanted to illustrate their tablets by highlighting the faces of the different ethnic groups which represent the Malagasy people. The Tanala, the Betsimisaraka, the Mahafaly, the Antanosy, the Bara and the Merina, all represented in their traditional headdresses and clothing.
