WOMEN WITH SHEA
EMPOWERING
Shea was a natural choice; it is “women’s gold” in these communities and generates income for their families. Shea empowers more than 600,000 women in northern Ghana and plays an important role in their economic development. In the Upper West Region, revenues from shea butter contribute to more than half the annual income of some households.
Shea is also a source of beauty and health. Its benefits through food, cosmetics, cleaning, and healing products are priceless. It nourishes, softens, smooths, heals, and rejuvenates.
OUR STORY
During the exciting years our founder spent supporting agriculture in northern Ghana, the urge to do business within these vibrant and resilient rural communities grew. Above all grew the desire to form a bond with the strong women who are the seeds and souls of agriculture.
