‘How does a community of artisanal shea butter producers in West Africa have any impact on a multi-billion dollar international industry? Set up your own international trading company, is one answer. This is what Toontibo is. With a foundation and a Ghana-based women’s association as the other elements of this purpose-driven, sustainability focused initiative, Alain Volz explains how it came into being, but also what it needs to take it to the next stage of development.’
