Very cool initiative. I particularly enjoyed the forest honey and hibiscus jam. Real and honest products with an exotic touch, especially the honey is something totally different than what you can normally get. Good luck with this!

The coconut oil is good. I just hope you will be able to get glass bottles for packaging.

Ria

I’ve searched for quality honey since the products in the market are diluted. Finally got my one stop quality honey! I will recommend it anywhere I find myself.

At the pick-up points, only Mobile Money payments are possible. Kindly pay before pick-up.

The Mobile Money number to use:
050 942 7873.

Is there a bulk-buy discount?

Our packaging is based on the consumer market with relatively small quantities per packaging. The largest container for our oils is 4.5 litres and 1 litre for our honey. We can offer a bulk-buy discount: buy 10 = get 1 free.

Even though we have not ventured into selling large quantities for wholesale, please contact us if you are a restaurant or caterer and have an interest to work with our products.

Do you offer refunds?

If you are unsatisfied in any way, or a products is not the quality you expected, please let us know and we will replace it or offer you a refund.

Is there a minimum order?

We can arrange a delivery for every order, there is no minimum order quantity. Delivery costs by dispatch rider is roughly 15-30 Ghc within Accra. We always try to have small quantities in stock at our pick-up locations as well.

Can you refill or recycle bottles?

We are interested in taking back your plastic jars and bottles for us to re-use. We can also refill your 4.5 litre jerrycans of zomi and coconut oil. This would be easiest if you come to the Jolinaiko HQ in Amrahia (see pick-up locations). Please let us know if you have a large quantity of glass jars or bottles at home, as we are always interested to re-use these for our jams.

How sustainable is your packaging?

Ultimately, we strive towards supplying our products in sustainable and reusable packaging. At the moment we use glass jars and plastic bottles of different sizes. It is a challenge to find the right glass bottles, so as long as we are searching for a solution, we still sell some quantities of our honey, coconut oil and zomi in plastic. On request we can use recycled glass bottles. So kindly share your preference for recycled glass when you order. We aim to phase out most plastic as soon as possible.

How do you ensure good quality and hygienic standards?

We have solid relationships and partnerships with our suppliers, and we are personally familiar with their villages, families, homes and farms. This is essential to monitor basic quality standards.

As a new company, we started by having a basic agreement in place with all our suppliers on personal hygiene and sanitation during processing and packaging.

However, with our in-house knowledge about organic and sustainable certification in both agriculture (shea nut and shea butter processing) and tourism, and our strong values on integrity and sustainability, we are well aware that this is only just the beginning of quality control. Together with our suppliers we will keep working towards a solid, safe and sustainable supply chain as we grow.

Our aim is to have all our products tested and registered with the Ghana Standard Boards to ensure that official quality and safety standards are met.
