Description
Shea nut, native to Sub-Saharan Africa, supplies 40–50% healthy fats and is a traditional staple for local diets. Rich in stearic acid, oleic acid, vitamins A and E, flavonoids, triterpenes, and phytosterols, shea butter is prized for use in food, cosmetics, and medicinal products.
With its high melting point and resistance to oxidation, shea nut oil makes an exceptional plant-based cooking fat—ideal for replacing cocoa butter in chocolate and pastries, or as a clean alternative to dairy cream and lard. In skin care, its emollient and anti-inflammatory triterpenes soothe and hydrate, making it a favorite for moisturizers and protective creams.
Our organic shea butter is cold-pressed, BRC-certified, and fully traceable, supporting fair trade and empowering women producers across Africa. Their oils are exported to over 40 countries, delivering premium quality and sustainability to brands in food, beauty, and wellness sectors.
