Meet Limbua
Macadamias for the change
The procurement of raw materials is a big part of what goes on behind the scenes at Lauenstein. And the new partnership with LIMBUA is currently moving the entire team. From January 2024, the German-Kenyan company will not only supply us with organic macadamia pulp of the highest quality; it is also an inspiring example of sustainability and fair trade in global value chains. And with success.
Quality (of life) for everyone!
Since 2006, the company founded by Matti Spiecker has developed from a Fairtrade pioneer into one of the leading organic macadamia producers in the world. What began with a few small farmers is now the interface between 7,000 organic farms in Africa and quality customers all over the world. A win-win concept for everyone involved. Because LIMBUA guarantees us as a trading partner the best quality and conditions - and the local producers secure earnings prospects. The exclusive focus on organic cultivation makes an important contribution to the protection of ecosystems and the health of employees on the farms.Macadamia nougat praline
To produce chocolate and pralines of consistently high quality, our chocolatiers need not only craftmanship and dedication, but also first-class raw materials.

Indulgence from the valley of Mount Kenya
If you want to intensify the experience of biting into our creamy, nutty macadamia creations, you can see for yourself where the processed macadamias come from. The four LIMBUA factories where the nuts are cracked and processed are all located at the foot of Mount Kenya, a fascinating ecosystem and dream destination for many travelers. By being located in the middle of this protected natural paradise, LIMBUA ensures short transportation routes and high-quality jobs for the local communities. In this way, an entire region benefits from ecological management and fair trade - and we lucky ones benefit from the best quality that touches the heart and soul
