Bulk Shea Butter Distributor

Karite Gold is a distributor of shea butter. We offer pure unrefined African shea butter in bulk quantities. This is the finest, freshly harvested shea butter available. Our bulk shea butter is filtered, unrefined, hand crushed, and hexane free - and is cosmetically ready for mixing into:

• Lotions
• Soaps
• Shampoos
• Conditioners
• Scrubs
• Creams
• Lip balm

• Bath moisturizer

Although you’ll probably pay more for bulk shea butter from other suppliers, you won’t be able to find a fresher, finer grade of shea butter anywhere.

Karite Gold is premium shea butter at its best! We don’t rely on importers to oversee the process and make the purchase – An American led Karite Gold team oversees the entire shea butter development and purchasing process during expeditions to Ghana, Africa. Only the few villages that use sanitary piped water produce the shea butter used in Karite Gold products. This is critical because once shea butter has been contaminated, the healing effects and functional life of the product is compromised. Most other shea butter products are not painstakingly protected from contamination.

Karite Gold’s hand-crushed Yellow Shea Butter is in high demand in the shea butter market due to its scarcity. The color is a result of a variety of shea nuts with yellow meat and from scrapings from the root of the Karite tree. This butter is much more rare than the common white variety. It has a soft creamy texture and a very light cocoa/coffee aroma.

Extraction Process. Karite Gold shea butter is crushed naturally to extract the meat from the shea nut. Its texture is soft and it has a soft golden color. Hexane is not used in the extraction process of our shea butter because of the serious health risks from exposure to this chemical. Many companies use hexane because it produces a larger amount of butter at a cheaper price. Besides the serious health risks posed from using hexane-extracted shea butter, much of the healing benefits are lost in the process.

Because Karite Gold shea butter is filtered, there are no impurities, (shell pieces) or other debris present. Our shea butter arrives ready for use in your products or can be applied directly from the container.

If you are seeking a quality shea butter, always ask your supplier how the shea butter was extracted, and how it was processed.

Shipping costs are based on the quantity and destination of the order.
