They have, depending on weather conditions. Meaning if there are cane shortages. I met Bernard Vandoren at Rico one time, because of a shortage of cane due to no rain in France. A very nice guy actually! I enjoyed our short conversations. Actually I saw him twice at Rico, but the second time was just shaking hands and a hello kind of thing. A 2 minute greeting at the most.

Rico and Vandoren actually have cane fields right smack next to each other in Argentina.

So it was true. I'm not sure if this arrangement is still going on, I'd say yes. In the music world we are all friends and try to help out each other. Rico owners didn't want to see Vandoren close their doors for a year or so looking for cane, or see musicians suffer.

Interesting comments!
