Hola! We're Black Mamba: an ethical business, born in Eswatini (Southern Africa). We make fresh, sustainable foods that taste good, look good and do good!
We believe passionately in sustainable farming and source all our organically grown chillies and other ingredient from small local growers through our partner Guba (gubaswaziland.org). They train Swazi smallholders (mostly women) in organic farming and permaculture and we buy their delicious, fresh produce - empowering every grower with a sustainable income! (That's what we call a HOT deal!)
The black mamba is one of the most dangerous snakes in Africa... Beware: our range of Chilli Venoms© will strike you with a dangerously tasty bite! They are halaal certified and gluten-free and our HEATquarters have FSSC22000 certification - one of the strictest food safety standards in the world.
Black Mamba is a proud member of ESWIFT - the Eswatini Fair Trade Network. Our vision is to become a cult brand connecting chilliheads and ethical foodies across the world to generations of growers, providing proof that people and planet matter!
