MAÏA Africa is a brand dedicated to combating malaria and protecting vulnerable populations in Africa. With their flagship product, the long-lasting anti-mosquito ointment, they aim to provide effective and lasting protection against malaria-carrying mosquitoes. Malaria is a major problem in Africa, causing the death of a child every two minutes.

Despite international efforts, the number of malaria cases continues to rise. This disease not only affects individuals but also hinders economic development and education, making it a critical issue for the continent. Previously known as Faso Soap, MAÏA Africa realized the potential of their anti-mosquito soap and expanded their product range to include the innovative MAÏA ointment.

Through extensive research and testing, they have developed a 2-in-1 ointment that not only moisturizes the skin with nourishing shea butter but also provides over 8 hours of protection against malaria-carrying mosquitoes. MAÏA Africa's mission is to save 100,000 lives by offering a cost-effective and widely accessible solution to protect families and children. Their ointment is used daily, particularly in areas with limited access to healthcare services, during the peak mosquito activity hours.

By distributing their products in five countries, MAÏA Africa is able to reach approximately 50% of the at-risk population. Their commitment to safety is evident as their ointment has been extensively tested and found to be non-toxic by independent laboratories. Currently available in Burkina Faso, MAÏA Africa plans to expand their distribution throughout West Africa.

They prioritize the African market to fulfill their social mission of protecting African populations from malaria. Although not available in Europe yet, MAÏA Africa may explore expanding their market in the future. For information on where to purchase MAÏA products, a store locator is available on their website.

With a dedicated team of experts in micro-encapsulation, botany, sociology, and entomology, MAÏA Africa is committed to making a lasting impact in the fight against malaria. Their innovative products provide a double-layered defense, ensuring that families in Africa can stay protected from malaria-carrying mosquitoes
