THE HAITIAN ESSENTIAL OILS MARKET CHAIN::
ESTEE LAUDER VETIVER MISSION
Production and marketing opportunity were explored by MarChE for vetiver.
A joint mission (MarChE/ Estee Lauder/ Eco Venture) was conducted in Haiti from Aug 24th to 28th.

As a result, links were established among processors and a potential buyer, Estee Lauder.

It is expected that processors will modernize their plants to become more efficient in term of energy consumption.

In addition, if social and environmental aspects are taken into account at the production and the harvest stages, growers and processors can generate more income from new eco-friendly markets.

Indeed, environmentally and socially responsible products are becoming more attractive to consumers and buyers worldwide.

Moreover, both farmers and processors can take advantages of the proximity of the USA to sale their products and get carbon credit as a result of low carbon emissions associated with transportation.
