Our Pillars

Four Pillars of Sustainability

Our sustainability strategy is built on four interconnected pillars that guide every decision we make.

Responsible Sourcing

We prioritize sustainably sourced raw materials, working with certified suppliers who practice responsible farming. Our palm oil supply chain is traceable and we actively support smallholder farmer programs in Ethiopia and the region.

  • Certified sustainable palm oil
  • Local sourcing priority
  • Supplier sustainability audits

Water & Energy Conservation

Our facility employs advanced water treatment and recycling systems, recovering up to 40% of process water. Solar panels provide 25% of our energy needs, with plans to reach 50% by 2027 through expanded renewable infrastructure.

  • Closed-loop water treatment
  • Solar panel array (expanding)
  • Energy-efficient equipment

Waste Reduction & Recycling

Our zero-waste-to-landfill initiative diverts 85% of production waste. Soap trimmings are re-processed, glycerin byproducts are recovered for sale, and packaging materials are recycled or composted wherever possible.

  • Soap scrap re-processing
  • Glycerin byproduct recovery
  • Recyclable packaging initiative

Community & People

We invest in our employees and surrounding communities through skills training, health programs, and educational support. Our factory provides dignified employment to over 350 people, with fair wages and career development opportunities.

  • 350+ direct employees
  • Skills training programs
