Why Ben & Jerry's Teaming Up With Tony's Chocolonely Is a Great Brand Partnership

Global ice cream giant Ben & Jerry's announced a partnership with 100% slave-free chocolate brand Tony's Chocolonely to produce a new flavor that uses ethically sourced chocolate and brings attention to the ongoing issue of modern slave-labor in the cocoa industry.
I love this brand partnership for many reasons (and not because it involves two of my favorite products). Both brands are launching a new co-branded product. The products are in related categories, but don't compete directly. There is a great cause behind it. And there's chocolate involved. Ok, that last one isn't really a reason to consider this a great partnership. But it doesn't hurt.
