The Vanilla Shortage: Our Solutions

The Vanilla Shortage: Our Solutions

The Problem

Divider

For the past few years the leading provider of vanilla has been suffering from a smaller crop than usual. Madagascar produces the largest quantity and best quality of the world's vanilla supply and the changing climate just couldn't produce in 2015. This year's crop is looking better, but it's still too early to tell if we'll be looking for long-term solutions.
Vanilla is already the second most expensive spice, slightly more affordable than Saffron. Both incur high production cost and intensive harvest labor to earn "Most Expensive Spice" awards. But what happens when a product with an already high price tag has low availability? The price goes up!
