SheaButter Cottage - Raw Shea Butter from Ghana (450g)
Sheabutter Cottage Unrefined Shea Butter is:
- produced under fair trade,
- pure (grade A),
- unbleached
- not deodorized
- without any additives
SheaButter Cottage sources directly from the Jilima Co-operative which it launched in November 2019. Based in Northern Ghana, our purchase ensures that the co-operative/community receives its due. These people work very hard but unfortunately most of the time shea producers are paid too low. Some shea producers are paid less than market value.
Obviously, without knowing the quality of the shea offered, it is difficult to compare.
There are so many different grades of shea on the market. Some of them are purchased on the open market or through cooperatives. Some producers skip the step of selecting the right nuts to produce the butter.
Akua, founder of SheaButter Cottage has worked with these shea growers on several occasions. They work long hours under the intense Ghana sun to produce a 25 kg box of shea.
You should know that the cost of producing a box is about 3 times higher than that required by buyers (wholesalers).
SheaButter Cottage is a firm believer in fair trade and pays these producers what they are owed. The brand also supports them by donating a percentage of each sale made.
