Dr Bronner's

Dr. Bronner’s is dedicated to using regenerative organic farming methods and creating products that are natural, organic, fair trade, and healthy. Dr. Bronner’s Organic Virgin Coconut Oil is directly supplied from Dr. Bronner’s own sister company, Serendipol, a farm in Sri Lanka’s “Coconut Triangle.” Serendipol was founded in 2006 following a tsunami relief effort as part of Dr. Bronner’s desire to create a cleaner supply chain by sourcing all of their major raw ingredients from fair trade and organic sources.

The ongoing development is part of Dr. Bronner’s commitment as a fifth generation soap-making family to carry on the social and environmental ideals of company founder Emanuel Bronner through integrating social initiatives and environmental stewardship into their business model. Since its founding, Serendipol has become the world’s foremost producer of certified fair trade and organic coconut oil.

The company currently purchases from approximately 1,200 farmers who farm organically, a practice initiated by Serendipol that has resulted in improved soil fertility and increased yields. The company’s staff has grown to 300 individuals who enjoy working conditions and compensation uncommon in the industry, proving that business can be socially responsible and environmentally sustainable.
