At Origin, we work exclusively with small family farms and farming communities. "We consider ourselves to be social investors." We invest in better equipment, training, and provide our farmers a platform to earn the profit they deserve. The only time we'll work with an exporter or trading company is if they assist our small farmers in the processing and quality control process. For example, Madagascar vanilla farmers must legally comply and work alongside a certified exporter. We bring small farmers directly to consumers. That's our business model.
