Macadamia, the queen of nuts!

They are known for their rich, buttery flavor and smooth, crunchy texture. Commonly eaten as a snack, macadamia nuts are also used in a variety of dishes, such as desserts, salads, and main courses. They are highly nutritious and a good source of healthy fiber and various vitamins and minerals, including vitamin B1, magnesium, and manganese. We grow and sell our organic nuts in partnership with Rwandan farmers.

Growing

We regularly train farmers in Rwanda on how to grow macadamia trees using organic practices, and we guarantee the purchase of the yield at a premium price.

Harvesting

Macadamia are harvested when they are fully ripe, which is usually when they have fallen to the ground. Farmers collect the nuts carefully to avoid any damage.

Processing

After harvesting,
the macadamias are taken to GorillaNuts factory to be processed. They are cleaned, sorted, dried and cracked.

Certification

We finance and and take care of all of the certification protocols and paperwork which the small-scale farmers would otherwise not have access to.

Packaging and labeling

The nuts are then packaged in high-quality containers to maintain their freshness, which is labelled to indicate the origin, organic certification, and nutritional information.
