Shea nuts are ethically sourced from Ghana , Burkina Faso , Mali and sold to reliable organisations globally
K-Star LLC strives to source quality shea nuts and raw shea butter as sustainably as possible from the various women communities, thereby supporting best practices in the shea industry.
K-star LLC empowers the shea women communities in the rural areas by ensuring fair price to the ‘Shea Women’ and the various communities associated to shea production.
Shea Nut is the seed of the tropical African shea tree, grown in the wild in the Sudan Savannah region in Africa, where hot winds blow sand and dust during the harmattan season.
The seed is the raw material for producing the fatty extract called Shea Butter. Shea nuts have been traded regionally for centuries, and today, about 300,000 MT are exported annually from West Africa, primarily for use as shea butter, which is used both in confectionaries and in cosmetics. The collection and processing of shea nuts is traditionally done by women exclusively, thus providing a source of revenue for the rural Ghanaian and Burkinabé women involved in the shea trade.
K-star LLC is open to partner with all stakeholders in the Shea Trade. Contact us for supply of quality shea nuts and shea butter.
