Today, as we celebrate International Women’s Day under the inspiring theme of “Invest in women: Accelerate progress,” our team is filled with immense gratitude for the incredible women who’ve made KAEME what it is after almost a decade of being in business. Our #KAEMELovers know every product is crafted with love, dedication, and a profound commitment to fostering positive change. Behind that magic is a network of resilient women whose hard work makes what we do possible. From those whose knowledge of ancient Ghanaian skincare lays the groundwork for our shea soufflés and liquid black soap to those whose entrepreneurial spirit fuels our vendor network to those who have been unofficial KAEME brand ambassadors, we are blessed with women from all walks of life who share our passion for a healthier, happier you.

KAEME’s mission extends far beyond luxury personal care: we believe in empowering women to feel confident, strong, and capable of achieving their dreams. This is a guiding principle that permeates every aspect of our brand. We’re intentional about supporting women, whether ethically sourcing our raw materials at fair prices from an all-women cooperative or partnering with others to help women earn sustainable incomes by producing traditional black soap, as we achieved with ACA in the Juaso community. And within our team, we’ve fostered a culture of inclusivity and empowerment for all. We strive to be a beacon of hope and inspiration for women worldwide and demonstrate the multiplying effects of investing in women.

As we celebrate the remarkable achievements of women everywhere, let’s also remember the importance of supporting one another on this journey towards progress. Whether through mentorship, advocacy, or simply encouraging the women we know, we have every reason to continue investing in women’s limitless potential. Beyond today, let’s pledge to accelerate progress by breaking down barriers to women’s rights and access to opportunities. Together, we can create a world where every woman has the needed resources to do her best and make a positive impact.

Thank you for being a part of our woman-led journey. However you enjoy this year’s International Women’s Day, we hope you feel an extra glow knowing that your investment in women accelerates progress for all of us. 

Happy International Women’s Day!

Sincerely,

The KAEME Team
