Overview

My husband and I started Black Mamba for the simple reason that we were nuts about chilies! But we soon learned that they re an amazing way to empower people and planet too. Joe was born in Swaziland and I was born in Colombia so we both had the tropical temperatures of the Southern Hemisphere in our blood. When he told me about the chili sauce he d made in his kitchen I couldn t wait to try it! After remixing the recipe with a dash of Latino flavor we launched our first bottles of Black Mamba at a local arts festival in 2010. All 400 bottles sold out right away and within months we went from employing one woman to stir a pot on our patio to have our own workshop and today an FSSC22000 certified factory. We re passionate about uplifting Swazi women and their families and now work with 60 women (and men) providing them with a sustainable income to help them improve their lives. We also now have a hot young thing of our own Black Mamba s future CEO! (Chilli Enthusiasm Officer)
