PRODUCTS WITH PURPOSE
products
High in the Himalayas there is an area called Hunza. It’s from here that Ila source the most vital and potent apricot oil. We work with a charity that supports destitute women who have been abandoned to get back on their feet. Through purchasing their apricot oil we have greatly helped the community with schools and medicinal facilities. In Morocco we work with another women’s co-operative this time with the Berber tribe. It is a co- operative set up by a woman who wanted to support other women earning money whilst still be able to look after their children. The women harvest and shell the berries and, as the Berber tribe believe the tree is sacred and should only be touched by women. The structure is very simple but works beautifully, her husband designed a cold pressing machine so it’s a beautiful virgin cold pressed Argan oil.
With all the communities we work with, there are no middle men we have a direct relationship, built on mutual trust, the money goes straight back into supporting the communities.
