Fleur Noire, in collaboration with Sustainable Concepts SARL (a Madagascar licensed processor), is dedicated to providing only the best quality and most authentic bourbon vanilla grown in the most remote parts of Madagascar. While vanilla beans are our passion, people are our priority. Fleur Noire sets itself apart from many other vanilla distributors because we acquire our vanilla straight from the source, the local small crop farmers. We avoid the large vanilla auctions and markets all together and drive out to meet the isolated farmers who are unable to bring their crops to market. Our partnership with the smaller more secluded farmers is central to our dedication to the under resourced Malagasy communities and our commitment to the natural and traditional methods of vanilla growing.
