After living in Madagascar several years ago, I have been unable to get it out of my system. Thus, when I bumped into Madecasse , a new company dedicated to producing high-end exports like chocolate and vanilla from Madagascar, my eyes popped out of my head and my jaw hit the ground.
Started by a former Peace Corps member who spent time on the Red Island after college, Madecasse is very dedicated to improving Madagascar’s economic conditions. In an interview with one of the founding members, I was pleased to discover that the Madecasse business model is one that promotes Madagascar, as opposed to takes advantage of its resources.
Look for Madecasse chocolates and spices all over town! And see the interview to the right.
