SHEA PROCESSING BUSINESS
SHEA PROCESSING BUSINESS ADVANTAGES IN AFRICA
  • The global cosmetics market is projected to reach a staggering $511 billion by 2025, with a growing demand for natural and sustainable ingredients.

  • Shea nut derivatives like shea olein, shea stearin, and unsaponifiables pose as a unique alternative, positioning Africa as a key player in this booming market.
