Where it grows
Grown in Inhambane, on the Indian Ocean coast
Inhambane is Mozambique's coconut country: sandy soil, sea air and palms as far as you can see. This is where our coconuts come from.
A coconut that is ready shows it: the colour turns brown. You can also tell by its sound. At the packing house the coconuts are sorted, weighed and bagged.

02
Coconut butter

- You need
- Dryer, grinder, jars
- How it is made

03
Desiccated coconut
Grate, dry and pack the kernel for bakeries and food makers.
- You need
- Grater, dryer, sieve, bag sealer

Garage guide
What you need to make virgin coconut oil in your garage
A small oil business fits in a garage. This is the basic setup; sizes and brands depend on your budget.
Equipment
- A clean table and a tool to crack the coconuts
- An electric coconut grater
- A tray dryer or low-heat oven
- A small screw oil press
- Food-grade buckets and filter cloth
- Glass bottles or jars, labels and a scale
- Clean water and good hygiene
The process
- Open the coconuts and remove the kernel.
- Grate the kernel.
- Dry it at low heat until crisp.
- Press it to extract the oil.
- Let the oil settle, then filter it.
- Bottle, label and sell.
As a rough guide, 12 to 15 mature coconuts give about 1 litre of oil, depending on size and method.
Check the food-safety rules in your country before you sell.
