Ingredients for your next production run.
We are developing supply channels for bulk raw materials and ingredients—not consumer retail. Each proposal starts with your processing requirements and supplier-qualification standards.
Shea Butter
Unrefined and refined grades for personal-care, cosmetic and other specified applications. Grade, processing method and intended use are agreed with the buyer.
Cocoa Products
Cocoa beans, nibs, liquor, butter and powder for U.S. chocolate, confectionery and food processors, subject to source availability and specification.
Botanical Oils & Butters
Baobab, moringa and selected plant-derived ingredients for manufacturers seeking suitable African-origin inputs.
Cashews & Food Inputs
Cashews and other agreed agricultural products for food processors, with grade, food-safety requirements, packaging and delivery defined before sourcing.
Hibiscus & Botanicals
Dried hibiscus and selected botanicals for tea, beverage and ingredient processing, matched to the buyer's analytical and handling requirements.
Other African-Origin Commodities
Share the commodity, origin preference, specification and expected volume. We will assess the sourcing route and commercial feasibility.
Start with your specification
Send the intended use, grade, analytical limits, packaging, trial quantity, projected volume and U.S. delivery location.
Qualify before ordering
Sample availability, origin and lot records, certificates of analysis, testing and any required certifications are confirmed for the proposed source and product.
Agree the import responsibilities
Importer responsibilities, regulatory requirements, freight, customs arrangements and delivery terms must be established for each transaction.
Product categories describe sourcing interests, not stocked inventory. Availability, grades, minimum quantities, samples and certifications are subject to confirmation. NAKO does not claim organic, fair-trade or other certification without supporting evidence for the specific supply.
