Alaffia is a For Life certified operation by ECOCERT for demonstrated corporate responsibility. Several of our products, including those with a primary base of shea or coconut, are also certified Fair for Life – ECOCERT’s fair trade product certification.
ECOCERT is one of the first and most renowned international inspection and certification agencies for fair trade accountability, combining strict social and fair trade standards with adaptability to local conditions. Fair trade certification ensures producers in economically disadvantaged countries receive a greater percentage of the price paid by consumers. As an example, Alaffia pays 15-25% above market price for shea nuts. Cooperative members also receive a salary more than 4x the average family income in Togo.
