One partner exporter, named
We work with a single exporter in the SAVA region and with the grower behind the lots. You are told where your beans come from, not sold an anonymous supply chain.
Independent sourcing desk
Madagascar vanilla, sourced and documented for professional buyers
Gourmet and extraction-grade beans from the SAVA region, with the specifications and export paperwork your quality team will ask for. We are not a producer — and that is exactly why we work for you.

What a sourcing desk actually does for you
A buyer-side desk in Europe
You deal with someone in your own time zone who prepares the documentation, compares grades against your specification and calculates your real landed cost.
Specifications before promises
Vanillin and moisture are what let you compare two offers on a dry-matter basis. We publish what has been measured and say so when a figure is not yet available.

We are an intermediary. Here is why that helps you.
Almost every vanilla website claims to be the direct exporter. Most are not. We would rather tell you what we are: a sourcing desk that connects professional buyers to a partner exporter in Madagascar, and is paid for the volume that actually ships.
That means we have no stock to clear and no reason to push a grade that does not fit your process. What we do have is a reason to make sure the first shipment goes well enough that you order a second one.
One thing rarely spelled out: our terms rest on a relationship built on the ground in the SAVA region, and on the recurring business we bring the growers we buy from. Approaching the same exporter as an unknown account does not transfer those terms to you. Do not take our word for it — ask us for a price, ask elsewhere, and compare like for like.
