Organic Certification Achieved!

The Solidity Trade team is proud to announce that we have successfully received organic certification of our Shea Butter Village, inspected and issued by the ECOCERT organic inspection company. This excellent news will enable us to bring more opportutnities to the cooperative in Tamale, Northern Ghana. As the financial sponsor of the Shea Butter Village, Solidity Trade is continuing to pursue a strong partnership with SEKAF Ghana, which has been responsible for the supervision of the organic certification and are is now aiming for the next milestone: Fair Trade Certification.

Over the past year, we’ve witnessed a strong call for organic-oriented produce from the market and possessing such a certification will help ensure the quality, transparence, and traceability of our products to our buyers. Unrefined shea butter is a great product that is gaining increased recognition across the globe. This certification will certainly spur the growth of the Shea Butter Village cooperative and enable us to create hundreds more jobs in that region over the course of the next few months.

East Asian Developments: A Beginning

During summer 2009, the Solidity Trade team made efforts to establish new business relationships throughout the East Asian region. The aim of this mission was to expand into new markets that have positive growth potential and could help increase our global reach.

In fact, Asian countries such as Korea have their own set of specific requirements and rules which differ significantly from the United States. Nevertheless, Solidity Trade is proud to announce that it has made its first sale in Korea and has started to establish an Asian distribution network in Korea and China and soon a new distribution network aimed at the Japanese market.

Thanks to these new developments, we will be able to distribute and increased amount of unrefined shea butter to these countries by shipping full containers on a regular basis to supply our warehouse in 2010.
