Our ethical sourcing
At Joche's Butter, we believe pure skincare starts with fair, equitable, organic, and ethical practices. Discover how every jar connects you directly to the skilled women artisans of West Africa.
Handcrafted by the women of Ghana
Our raw shea butter originates in West Africa, gathered and prepared primarily by incredible women's cooperatives across northern Ghana. By working closely with these communities, we honour centuries of tradition, skill, and care passed down across generations.
Fair wages, safe conditions, and childcare support
Choosing Joche's Butter means directly investing in the producers who make it all possible. Every purchase ensures fair wages, safe working environments, community development, and vital childcare support so mothers and families can flourish together.
Traditional, unrefined, and nutrient-dense
We insist on unrefined shea butter harvested through time-tested, traditional hand methods. By avoiding harsh industrial refining and chemicals, our butter retains its complete profile of natural vitamins and fatty acids for deep hydration designed for melanin-rich skin.
"True radiance begins with fairness, equity, and ethical care from harvest to skin."
