Why dōTERRA?

Why are dōTERRA® essential oils the best on the market?

dōTERRA® is not just a company that sells Essential Oils, it is an institution that, through its business, brings the best of nature to its customers, who in turn, by purchasing the oils help every producer in the four corners of the world!
By choosing dōTERRA®, you are choosing Essential Oils carefully distilled from plants that have been patiently cultivated in the most pesticide-free location, and harvested at the right time by experienced local growers.
Distilling essential oils is a science, but it is also an art. Distillers not only use modern technologies and techniques, but they also have years of experience passed down from generation to generation.
A detail that distinguishes dōTERRA® from the majority of the competition is that the manufacturing process of dōTERRA® essential oils is totally internal, that is, dōTERRA® does not purchase raw materials from external producers or resellers. This allows us to offer a product that comes from a closed circuit, with no room for misconduct, poor production, contamination, poor storage, all the steps necessary for the creation of an Essential Oil are controlled, thus being able to obtain a product that offers maximum confidence to the final consumer.
dōTERRA travels the world in search of the best plants.
Once all the conditions - soil, climate, plant quality, growing methods and harvesting - are met, dōTERRA partners with local farmers, resulting in the best raw material, 100% organic.
The story begins with the producers
dōTERRA partners responsibly with farmers in over 40 countries. Most of the time, these partners are ordinary farmers who, through the compensation they receive, are able to provide their families with employment and a decent living.
The dōTERRA Difference
While other companies in the essential oil segment try to minimize costs in the growing, production, and harvesting process, or even try to "stretch" the oils by adding cheaper ingredients, dōTERRA is very selective and does not compromise on quality.

The company's policy is to supply the purest oils.

Global Botanical Network

While the temptation for a company of dōTERRA's size might be to buy large tracts of land and produce the oils on a large scale, dōTERRA prefers to value the knowledge of local producers, many of whom have cultivated the essential oil-producing plants for generations, and continue that lineage.

dōTERRA recruits its specialist producers from a global botanical network and, in doing so, responsibly supports thousands of jobs around the world. In addition to changing lives, dōTERRA also contributes to the fight against deforestation that affects the entire world. Local farmers, when they see their activity recognized and valued, return to sow, plant, believing that there is a bright future!

Sweet and special
dōTERRA’s extensive sourcing partnerships allow the company to produce proprietary, patented oils and oil blends that preserve the purity and potency of each herb. Ninety-six percent of dōTERRA’s individual oils and oil blends are proprietary, ensuring that essential oil users receive a truly unique and unmatched product.

dōTERRA co-impact sourcing

Guiding principles of the offer
We travel to the most remote regions of the world to source the highest quality oils, but before we partner, we ensure producers adhere to our strict sourcing guidelines.

We then rigorously monitor and audit all partners to ensure they meet the criteria of our sourcing guidelines. With co-impact sourcing, doTERRA assumes the commitment of "shared value" for all actors in the Essential Oils production chain from the commitment of environmental responsibility and/or solutions to poverty.
