BLACK PRODUCTS OF AFRICAN ORIGIN

Coming soon a fantastic and dynamic site, that looks at helping you find those products which are from Africa or from the Diaspora. We will cover different areas asscociated with African culture and it's transference to all corners of the globe. Whether it be spices from Grenada, medicinal herbs from Jamaica, Capoeira from Brazil. We hope to provide these items as well as educate ourselves, and you about this rich culture.

We also hope source natural products, although we will stock items which have chemical processing, but with a view to weaning the customer away from such products, and allowing them to look at the long term benefits of natural products.

As the world begins to embrace Africa as the place where Humanity began, many people of differing races are beginning to take a closer look at this beautiful continent, and are beginning to contemplate the fact that the entire human race has it's roots in Africa.

This is a vast continent, with a high degree of diversity. Following trading with other parts of the world, and the Atlantic Slave Trade, the Diaspora has stretched far and wide. Therefore we could never do justice to the vast array of products which are out there!

But here is just a few of the things we are looking to provide:

African Black Soap

Shea Butter

African Koora's

Kenyan Tea

Central African Art

Foodstuffs from the Caribbean, South America, North America, Indian Ocean, as well as from Africa itself.

Books

Prominent people of African Heritage

Music

Oral Tradition

Please bear with us, as this is going to be a long never ending journey.
