Kanakisa, derived from "naka" an indigenous word meaning to correct or beautify; is a women-owned, all-natural personal care and functional food company.
Our primary areas of focus are:
To apply both indigenous (traditional medicines and therapies ) and contemporary (modern science, innovations and commerce) practices in the processing of both Non-Timber Forest (NFTPs) and organically cultivated plants to produce a variety of healthy and nutritious consumables for both internal and external use.
