Nilotica Shea Butter from Uganda
The rarer, nilotica species of East African shea is found only in the savannahs of Northern Uganda and Southern Sudan. Nilotica has a milder scent, a lower melting point (77, 86 degrees F) and has a higher percentage (50 – 60% for nilotica vs. 30, 45% for paradoxa) of the skin penetration enhancer, oleic acid.

How shea butter is made: A complete guide to shea nut
Modern machinery and processes have enabled shea butter production at scales large enough to make the product accessible globally. This means that even though shea tree cultivation is limited by the decades-long process, shea nut processing, shea kernel processing, and shea butter production are no longer constrained by geography.
By David Magere In order to enhance farming practices, harvest quality and productivity among farmers in northern Uganda, Pelere Group Limited, an oilseed company, has dedicated itself to improving shea nut production through value addition. The factory aims to empower at least one million smallholder farmers in northern Uganda, helping them adopt new techniques for...
Shea Butter Oil Extraction Machine, Oil Press Group
Shea nut is the fruit of African shea tree. Like avocado, shea nut has delicious flesh. The fat contained in the kernel of shea nut is shea butter, which takes up about 40% ~ 55%. Each mature shea tree produces only 15 to 20 kilograms of shea per year, which can only survive on the African continent due to climatic and plantation reasons.

Shea Nut Oil Expeller / Press Machine Manufacturers & Exporters
Farmers are able to use by-products of their shea nut production to use. Shea oil is a vegetable oil obtained from the seeds of the shea tree. It is an important source of fat in food and cosmetics. Although the shea oil can be marketed both locally and internationally, the demand for export products worldwide is increasing.
The Shea Project for Local Conservation and Development (The Shea Project), conceived in 1990, is an integrated conservation and development project which now covers an area of over 10,000 square miles (160,000 square kilometers) across northern Uganda, where over 400 community-based groups have been introduced to the project, their total membership representing over 10,000 farming households.
- Is Uganda a nut exporter?
- Nearly all countries listed by FAOSTAT as exporters of nuts are African – all West African. Uganda is therefore not listed. Moreover, the Uganda National Bureau of Statistics itself does not publish data on production or exports of shea nuts, shea butter or shea butter products.
- Should Ugandan shea be destined for export?
- Any product destined for export must consistently be of the right quality. That quality must be what the market demands, not just what the exporter is able to supply. Quality and standards consciousness must permeate the entire value chain if Ugandan shea is to get onto and compete in the global markets.
- What is Ugandan shea nut & shea butter strategy?
- Duplication of effort at Government level meaning that scarce resources have to be spread rather thinly. This is a five year strategy with the aim to increase awareness of Ugandan shea nut and shea butter products on the global markets.
- Is Uganda a significant player in the International shea nut/butter trade?
- A search for Uganda shea exports in a number of international trade databases yielded no results. The Statistical Abstract that the Uganda Bureau of Statistics publishes annually also gives no data on shea exports. It can therefore be assumed that for now, Uganda is not a significant player in the international shea nut/butter trade. 4.1.8.
- Does Uganda have a Shea value chain?
- To address the above constraints, this strategy has devised the following interventions for the development of the shea value chain in order to place Uganda on the shea export scene. It is appreciated that this value chain is peculiar in that it has an inordinately long pre-harvest stage.
- How will Ugandan shea butter increase its income?
- It is expected that through these interventions, the gatherers will receive better prices for their nuts and hence increase their income; Ugandan shea butter and products will be internationally more competitive; and the country will earn higher levels of earnings from shea butter and its products. 5.4.3.
