Business Overview

The business combines a shea-focused product catalogue with a stated social-purpose mission. Customers can compare retail products online, while larger-volume buyers can enquire about bulk shea butter. Its published Canadian contact is in Vancouver, with a mailing address, telephone and email for order and product questions.

The official About page states that shea butter is imported from Senegal and Ghana and used in British Columbia to make finished products including soap, shampoo and lotion. The website identifies Ba and Fanta as the founders. These are company-published accounts of its origins and supply model; no incorporation date or legal form is inferred from the name “Society”.

Sourcing and Community Purpose

African Fair Trade Society says it directs profits from shea-butter sales towards education, health and livelihood initiatives in rural West Africa, including work connected with Dakateli in Senegal. This explains its stated commercial purpose; current programme results and independent fair-trade or organic certification have not been established by this review.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can individuals order online?

Yes. The official store lists personal-care products in retail formats. Check the selected item, ingredients, size and current delivery terms before ordering.

Is bulk shea butter available?

The catalogue includes a wholesale raw-shea-butter product and the business invites bulk enquiries. Confirm the required quantity, current pricing and delivery arrangements directly.

Is the Vancouver address a shop customers can visit?

The business publishes a Box mailing address. A walk-in shop at that address has not been verified; use its store locator or contact the business before travelling.

Are the products medical treatments or independently certified here?

This profile describes the cosmetic product range. It does not verify disease-treatment claims or independent organic/fair-trade certification. Check current labels and request the relevant documentation from the supplier.

Siachen Reader Note

Business information naturally evolves over time as organisations introduce new products, services, facilities, technologies, certifications, leadership changes and operational improvements.

This Business Knowledge Profile begins with information submitted by the business owner or representative. Siachen then reviews, verifies where possible, and enhances that information using the company’s official website, where available, and other reliable public sources before publishing the revised profile.

As business information may change after publication, readers are encouraged to visit the company's official website, where available, or contact the business directly to obtain the latest information regarding products, services, pricing, operating hours, admissions, appointments, certifications, contact details, locations and other important updates before making business decisions.

Siachen Business Knowledge Platform periodically reviews Business Knowledge Profiles wherever practical. However, the official website, where available, and authorised representatives of the business remain the most reliable sources of current information.

Products / Services

Products and Buying Options

Raw shea butter and blended formats

The current collection includes raw, unrefined shea butter in unscented and scented options, alongside blends with oils such as argan and avocado. Retail sizes include 2 oz, 4 oz and 17 oz listings. Check the exact product label and pack size when choosing a format.

African black soap and shea-butter soaps

Separate catalogue ranges cover African black soap and shea-butter soaps for routine cleansing. The range includes different formats and fragrances; ingredient and sensitivity information should be checked for the individual product.

Body creams, lotions and hair-care products

Creams and lotions form distinct ranges, with scented and unscented options appearing across the store. The hair-and-skin collection provides additional personal-care choices. This profile makes no hair-regrowth or disease-treatment promise.

Baobab and massage oils

The oils collection lists baobab oil, unscented massage oil and a lavender-oil option. These give shoppers a separate oil-based format to compare with shea butter and creams; current composition and directions remain product-specific.

Wholesale enquiries and local retail availability

The business lists a bulk raw-shea-butter option and accepts wholesale questions through its contact page. Retailers and product makers can discuss quantities and supply terms directly. Shoppers seeking a nearby retailer can use the official store locator rather than treating the Vancouver mailing address as a confirmed storefront.
