Nigeria’s Shea Butter: A Global Agricultural Treasure

Welcome to the world of shea butter in Nigeria, brought to you by UNR Agro Allied Ltd. As the world’s largest producer of shea nuts, Nigeria stands at the forefront of the global shea butter market, a position we are proud to be a part of.

Unrivaled Production and Quality

Nigeria produces an average of 263 thousand metric tonnes of shea nuts annually, accounting for approximately 53% of the total global production. The quality of Nigerian shea butter is renowned, with its oil-rich content and natural purity making it highly sought after in both local and international markets.

Nigerian Shea Butter: Versatile and In-Demand

Shea butter in Nigeria is more than just an agricultural product; it’s a versatile commodity used in various industries. From medicinal applications like treating skin disorders to being an essential ingredient in the food, pharmaceutical, and cosmetic industries, the applications of shea butter are vast and diverse.

Empowering Local Communities

The production and processing of shea nuts provide sustainable income for many, particularly in rural areas. It empowers local communities, especially women, who play a significant role in the shea butter value chain. This industry not only supports local livelihoods but also contributes to the overall economic development of the country.

The Global Shea Butter Market

The demand for shea butter in the global market is poised to surpass $2.9 billion by 2025. Nigeria, with its unmatched shea nut production capacity, is uniquely positioned to capitalize on this growing demand, especially in the European Union, the United States, and emerging markets in Asia.
