Sustainability

Queen Professional are a trusted partner for their consumers, customers and communities, paving the way for a sustainable future. Queen Professional are proud of their global initiatives to ensure sustainable Vanilla sourcing & production.

Fair, ethical and sustainable sourced Vanilla

At Queen Professional, our sights are set firmly on the future. We’re proud of the exceptional quality of the vanilla we source, but the way in which we produce it carries just as much weight. As your sustainably focused ingredient partner, Queen Professional is committed to the fair, ethical and sustainable sourcing of vanilla. It’s at the heart of everything we do. We think in terms of generations, rather than years or months, and we’re serious about nurturing the needs of our growers and their communities without compromising the ability of future generations to do the same.

Queen has been building and nurturing relationships with vanilla bean growers around the globe for many years, and through our parent company Dr. Oetker, we support vanilla initiatives in Madagascar, Papua New Guinea and Uganda.

By educating and supporting our growers to improve the quality of their vanilla, farm yields and margins, these initiatives will help them to build long-term, sustainable businesses that can be passed on to future generations.

Sustainable action and corporate responsibility

Queen Professional’s parent company, Dr Oetker, have a long tradition of sustainable action and corporate responsibility.

At Dr Oetker our purpose is Creating a Taste of Home. Guided by this claim, we are constantly developing our company and paving the way for a sustainable future. As a result, in 2020, we adopted the Dr. Oetker Sustainability Charter and thereby firmly anchored a new roadmap for the topic of sustainability in our daily business. The Sustainability Charter consists of the dimensions Our Food, Our World and Our Company and includes both concrete sustainability goals and obligations that we as a responsible company face.
