UNIQUE NATURAL PRODUCTS

Mozambique’s first luxury body care line.

Indulge yourself with the finest natural oils and plant extracts that rejuvenate your skin and hair. BOM products are expertly formulated, free from parabens and synthetic fragrances.

INGREDIENTS FROM THE LANDSCAPE

BÓM formulations harness the unique properties of oilseed and plant species from Mozambique’s forests and Southern Africa. Collaborating with experts, we develop processing technologies to preserve the characteristics and high quality of each forest resource.

COMMUNITY & ENVIRONMENT

We build supply chain partnerships that benefit local communities. BOM products link rural areas with developed markets, promoting economic autonomy for disenfranchised women. Partnering with various stakeholders, we ensure trade benefits return to the source.

Our Story

BIO ÓLEOS DE MIOMBO In 2010, BIO ÓLEOS DE MIOMBO emerged with a vision to harness Mozambique’s rich forest resources and create a line of natural, high-quality body care products. Founder Ana Alecia Lyman dedicated over a decade to collaborating with artisans and communities, forging enduring partnerships that form the cornerstone of our brand.

Developed in collaboration with local and international experts, our formulas meticulously utilize the finest locally sourced ingredients. We work closely with public and private partners to establish sustainable value chains, ensuring livelihoods and fostering community-led environmental conservation.

BIO ÓLEOS DE MIOMBO stands as a testament to the power of the private sector in empowering rural communities and promoting environmental preservation. We create markets for sustainable products, incentivizing communities to protect their precious forests.

Through partnerships with NGOs, bilateral agencies, governments, and community groups, BIO ÓLEOS DE MIOMBO actively supports community-based value chains. We firmly believe in Mozambique’s potential to lead the natural products industry, ensuring that the benefits of these resources flow back to the women and families who are their guardians.
