Madagascar, a historical presence
Madagascar is the first origin that De Monchy Natural Products developed in 2012. With natural vanilla being our core product, Madagascar and its unique vanilla flavors have always been of strategic importance to the company.
Under the Bourbon appellation, the island is the world’s largest producer of natural vanilla beans. Thanks to many generations of skilled farmers and producers, the distinctive qualities of Madagascar Bourbon Vanilla make it a prized commodity in the food and fragrance industry around the globe.
At our Sambavanille – De Monchy Natural Products facility, we have developed a world class production center in the Sambava region to supply the world as a leading exporter of Bourbon Vanilla. Over several years of continuous development, we have made a positive impact on the vanilla production in Madagascar through the creation of the Macky Farmer Association as well as being an active founding member of the Sustainable Vanilla Initiative.
