The team at Wickaboo are passionate about design and have a heart for Africa. Having all lived, worked and loved Africa, the team appreciates the challenges companies face on the African continent. Those who make crafts and functional art rely primarily on passing trade with limited access to European and UK markets. Wickaboo partners with small African companies to help them gain access to out-of-reach markets, grow their business, and develop their sales, marketing, and manufacturing skills. When you buy candles from Wickaboo, you are also sustaining companies and feeding and educating the families of the people that work in these businesses. Wickaboo has a deep-rooted humanitarian understanding of Africa and a passion to change perceptions of a beautiful nation that is, after all, the cradle of mankind.
