L’OCCITANE set up a joint-development program with the women of Burkina Faso. "Thanks to the incredible success of our Shea Butter range, which is known and loved throughout the world, the number of women producing shea butter for L'OCCITANE has gone from less than 100 to over 15,000 today!" Olivier Baussan, founder of L’OCCITANE.
