Thanks to the Society of Agri-Management Delapointe, shea butter is now certified fair trade in Canada.

The Center for International Studies and Cooperation and TransFair Canada are pleased with the arrival of a new certified product in Canada; shea butter.

This initiative is the work of the Society of Agri-Management Delapointe, which offers some beauty products with a shea butter base including lip balm, body milk and massage balm.

Praxède Lévesque, the company’s president, explained,  "Shea butter is a natural African product that Canadian consumers will enjoy discovering. It has many benefits for the entire body: it hydrates, protects and soothes the skin, lips and hair."
