The two companies have collaborated closely on the development of several Baobab products, most notably Baobab Seed Oil extracts.

Tiger Botanicals is the leading direct-from-source US importer and distributor of Baobab and other unique African botanical ingredients such as Rooibos, Hoodia and Irvingia to the food, beverage, nutritional and cosmetic industries. The company has warehouse facilities on both the East and West coasts and is able to guarantee prompt shipment for fast selling items.
Baobab, is being touted as the "new Superfruit" and Hugh Lamond, President of Tiger Botanicals, says that he "fully expects several new, high profile products to be introduced into the market by leading food, nutraceutical and cosmetic companies during the next twelve months". He went on to say that, "recently there has been a noticeable increase in shipments of Baobab Fruit Pulp Powder and Seed Oil to the trade and products incorporating Baobab are now more readily available through Internet sites and also finding their way on to supermarket shelves."
Last year, an article in National Geographic noted that the fruit pulp is used as a natural source of fiber, calcium, magnesium, potassium, iron and high levels of antioxidants derived from vitamins C and B. These naturally occurring nutrients have attracted the attention of the food, beverage and nutraceutical industry.
Baobab fruit pulp powder is GRAS and Novel Foods approved and also available in NOP certified Organic form. It can be used safely as a natural, functional ingredient in a variety of products including juices, yoghurts, cereals, energy drinks, smoothies, ice creams, fruit powders, chewable tablets, fruit bars, etc. In addition, Baobab seed oil, leaves and bark can all be utilized in the beauty and cosmetics industry to manufacture creams, masks, shampoos, conditioners, lotions and exfoliates. Overall, the wide range of usage of the Baobab fruit makes it a highly valuable natural resource.
