The two new primary schools will be completed and opened mid-year 2019. In 2016, Synergy Flavors completed the construction of two schools near Sambava, Madagascar, and two additional facilities were built last year in Antohomaro and Farahalana, Madagascar, to replace two others that were destroyed by Cyclone Enowa.

This initiative is a way for the company to give back to the underserved community of growers and processors who have been at the heart of Synergy Flavors’ success for decades.

Each new item will feature Fourth & Heart’s premium grass-fed Madagascar Vanilla Bean and is a lactose-free, nut-free alternative.

The taste opens with a creamy vanilla flavor followed by a smooth, light whisky finish.

Barry Callebaut will apply its long-standing cocoa expertise in association with Prova’s local vanilla know-how, creating synergies on the ground for the benefit of the local vanilla farmers.
