About Akoma Skincare
Akoma was founded in 2002 with the goal to provide a global supply chain from Ghana, West Africa, to the rest of the world. The focus was and still is, operating to Fairtrade and Organic Standards ensuring that all our products and ingredients are sustainably sourced.
The Founder Angus Klufio
Angus Klufio the founder of The Akoma Group, has spent the past 17 years promoting sustainable agriculture and ethical trade practices in West Africa. One of his first tasks was to unify and organise marginalised farmers. This is to help them develop commercial opportunities for their products and to create a sustainable supply chain.
Akoma’s raw shea butter, palm oil, coconut oil, cocoa butter and black soap products are produced in cooperatives in Ghana. They use traditional methods that are environmentally safe, producing 100% organic products. Their raw shea butter and black soap are certified Fairtrade.
Akoma’s mission is to
‘help change a million lives for the better’ whether this is through education and its products.
