Stort Group Partners with Ayanda African Oils

13 October 2025

Stort Group is pleased to announce a new partnership with Ayanda African Oils, a respected South African producer of essential oils and natural ingredients. This collaboration opens the door to an exciting range of raw materials from a region rich in botanical diversity, now available to our UK customers.

Ayanda African Oils operates in KwaZulu-Natal, working closely with farming communities to grow, harvest and distil their oils with care and integrity. Their approach combines deep agricultural knowledge with a commitment to sustainability and fair trade — values that strongly align with our own.

Their portfolio includes a wide selection of high-quality oils such as Tea Tree, Lemon-Scented Tea Tree, Lemongrass, Rosemary (Verbenone), Citronella, and several Eucalyptus varieties including Radiata, Globulus and Citriodora.

Emma Marchant, Group Creative Director at Stort Group, said: “We are so happy to start this partnership with Ayanda African Oils.  It brings to the UK market new raw materials from an exciting area. And Ayanda’s passion for fair trade and sustainability sits perfectly with our own values.”

This partnership strengthens our commitment to working with producers who share our focus on responsible sourcing and long-term relationships. Ayanda African Oils’ products are now available through Stort Group in the UK.
