About Us

 

Welcome to our Wild African Company 

We are a sustainable company focusing on giving small farmers in Africa access to the Swiss and European market. The farmers do not use fertilizers and pesticides, hence the product is not only very fresh but wild as it mainly grows in the forests of Cameroon and other beautiful places all over Africa (Burkina Faso, Senegal, Zambia, etc.)

Our promise

Our promise is to bring the best quality possible of tropical fruit to the European market. Even the peanuts, the coconuts or our tasty dried fruit is wild. We don’t use any preservatives nor any add-ons.

Our story

 

Fruit Passion, founded by Francette Dubach-Obe, is a small company that imports exotic fruits and vegetables directly from Africa. Unsatisfied with the lack of flavor of exotic fruits in the Swiss market, she decided to bring fruits and vegetables from her own native country, Cameroon, in order to fill this niche.

 

The first few fruit boxes arrived from Cameroon in 2006. She delivered door to door to friends, neighbors and acquaintances week after week. Taste tests, samples, fruit baskets were prepared constantly to service new clients. And soon after, she realized that her small idea had turned into a big reality.

 

Fruitpassion is proud to sell exotic fruits and vegetables that are organically produced from small farmers in Africa. No pesticides and no fertilizers are used. The fruits are picked ripe from the tree and shipped directly to Zurich every week by plane. With the support of a local export association of farmers Fruit Passion is able to select the right produce and properly control its quality before shipping the boxes to Switzerland.
