New ACA Member Highlight: Raw Indulgence Ltd.

Based in the United States, Raw Indulgence Ltd. joined ACA as a corporate stakeholder in May of 2015. The company has been in business for approximately 12 years. Since their inception, they have sough to strive for excellence in taste, nutrition and quality in order to create a path of transforming the health of people and the planet.

Nearly all of their super healthy and mostly-certified organic products have been based on cashew nuts. Raw Indulgence Ltd. prides itself on inventing and manufacturing some of the world’s most delicious healthy food products. Their main products include branded nutritional bars called Raw Revolution and Raw Rev Glo. The products are sold worldwide, mostly in major supermarkets and health food stores, as well as online. The company owner, who is a previous chef and thus understands the market and consumer preferences, creates all of the products.

The company is a small women-owned business who got their start through product sampling, marketing, attending industry trade shows, and driving website traffic. With the help of their dedicated sales team, they have been able to expand channels of distribution to both national and international markets.

As a small company in an international market, their biggest challenges include rising commodity prices and intense competition. Raw Indulgences joined ACA to overcome some of these challenges and to work more directly with suppliers of purchased ingredients. They seek specifically to use the membership to establish a direct link between the US-based factory and growers and processors in Africa. Through contracting new suppliers on the continent, the company hopes to eliminate intermediaries and ultimately generate greater profit, both for the supplier and for the company itself.
