Sheabutter, organic

Shea butter originates from West and Central Africa. The shea tree only occurs in this vegetation. Shea butter is an excellent and popular skin care product.

Shea butter is a light, beige colored fat. Deodorized shea butter is lighter to almost white.

Shea butter is used in food manufacturing as a replacement for palm oil.

We source our shea butter from several countries in East and West Africa - including Ghana, where we work closely with the Shea Savannah Fruit Company (SFC).

Shea butter is known in Africa as shea butter or "women's gold". The collection and processing of butter is traditionally in women's hands and is the livelihood for millions of women and families in one of the poorest countries in the world. Since 2012, we have been supporting two women's groups in Burkina Faso who produce our high-quality raw organic shea butter by hand.
