Artisan Story
The African Free Trade Society imports raw, unrefined Shea Butter from, Senegal and Ghana. Once in British Columbia, Canada the Shea Butter is used to produce soap, shampoo, and skin lotion. These products are packaged, and then marketed throughout British Columbia, Alberta, Manitoba,Ontario and Saskatchewan via trade shows, the internet, and local community programs.
The profits of Shea Butter sales are used by The African Fair Trade Society to establish a channel of micro-aid to small, impoverished communities in Western Africa. They target funds towards those most in need without bias. Their goal is to invest in the Health and Education infrastructure of rural villages in West Africa.
