Shea Beans (Shea Nuts / Vitellaria Paradoxa Seeds)

Shea beans, also called shea nuts, are the seeds of the Vitellaria paradoxa tree, native to West and Central Africa. These oil-rich seeds are harvested, dried, and traditionally processed to produce shea butter—a staple in natural cosmetics, body butters, and soap making. Shea beans contain high levels of oleic and stearic acids, along with vitamins A and E, making them ideal for cold-press extraction of premium-quality shea butter. They are commonly used by manufacturers of skincare, haircare, and organic beauty products, as well as in traditional African medicine and eco-conscious ingredient sourcing.
