There is a big gap between the plants and the modern society.
Born and raised between Tunisia and Switzerland, I have always been interested in healthy living and this lead me to studying bio-tech.
Bio-tech left in working in the pharma industry and what I learnt during my time in the pharma industry is that medicine cures symptoms but it doesn’t make you healthier or stronger.
With this realisation I felt inspired to find a solution for people that is more long-term. As I went along with my self – discovery I felt more the edge to do something meaningful yet truly making people’s lives healthier and stronger.
I decided I wanted to take some time out and travelled back to Tunisia – with the aim of finding products that improved people’s well-being without side-effects even if used long-term that were not available in Switzerland.

During my trip I met one permaculture farmer who took time to educate me about different plants, herbs, fruits and vegetables that are healthy in Tunisia. This is when I was re-introduced to Aloe Vera.
I grew up around Aloe Vera, my family had used Aloe Vera a lot as I was growing up. However what struck me was that all the Aloe Vera products we used were pre-packed.
This meant some of the minerals and vitamins found in the natural Aloe Vera plant were missing although what many people wanted was the fresh, raw plant with all the vitamins.
They wanted to extract the gel themselves because the pre-packed products did not taste so good, had preservatives which made it not as healthy as it should be.
Discovering this and spending some time with this farmer sparked something in me … “why not introduce” Aloe Vera to Switzerland in an innovative way”.
This is when I started to read a lot about Aloe Vera, started to acquire more knowledge about it’s usage and realised how easy it is to use Aloe Vera both internal and external which why I now sell Aloe Vera.
I spent a lot of time learning and researching on the healthy benefits of both internal and external use. I can assure you – it is one of the best plants there is out there today!
That is what led me to introduce Aloe Vera in Switzerland in an innovative way. I started my own business in November 2016.
My goal from then on was to distribute aloe vera leaves while achieving a mission by contributing to progress in the agricultural sector of developing countries, supporting independent farmers and creating new jobs.

The Vegan market
“Sustainable Swiss gourmet chocolate, impressive aloe vera leaves, vegan wines and fresh do-it-yourself sprouts. There were many interesting products to discover and a supporting program that focused on the background of the products at the first The Vegan Market in Zurich.
I was particularly fascinated by the diversity of the young and established companies who aim to support the change of the existing product landscape with their plant-based products, while enriching our society.”
