A lot of our food is prepared with exotic flavors, herbs and spices originating from dozens of developing countries. While we enjoy their taste, these Natural Herbs and Spices are an important source of income for tens of thousands of families and a important driver for rural development.

The Dutch Herbs and Spices sector is committed to start the journey towards a more vital and sustainable sector. The working group consists of  Verstegen, Euroma, Intertaste, UniSpices and the KIT.

NewForesight supports the Sustainable Herbs and Spices working group in the design and set up of their Sustainability strategy and planning. We are actively looking for more (international) committed companies and NGO's to join this working group.

The Sustainable Herbs and Spices program is powered by IDH.
