So picture this: You walk into La’Afrique Market expecting to grab cassava flour and leave quietly. But there he is. Behind a table full of glowing tea packs and nervous energy, Mamud Dako, the founder of Tropace Tea, was in the flesh.
Something magical happened this week: Tropace Tea officially hit the shelves of La’Afrique Market, that beautiful little West African corner of Brooklyn where plantain chips reign supreme and everyone’s auntie is somehow related.
Tea is far more than a beverage across the African continent and its global diaspora. It is a ritual, a gathering point, and in many homes, a spiritual anchor. From the early morning pour in Yoruba households to the calming nighttime brews in Ghanaian kitchens, daily tea rituals for African families are part wellness, storytelling, and inherited wisdom.
For too long, African wellness systems have been treated as anecdotal, worthy of curiosity but not credibility. Meanwhile, Western wellness brands repackage centuries-old practices with new fonts and foreign names.
In an age of wellness startups and rapidly shifting health trends, it’s easy to forget that some of the most effective wellness practices were born not in labs, but in the living rooms and village circles of communities passed down through oral history.
Wellness is booming. From supplements to subscription apps, it’s a $5 trillion global industry, yet so much of it looks the same. The imagery is minimal. The language is clinical. And the culture? Often missing.
In a marketplace saturated with mass-produced wellness products, a quiet revolution is brewing. At the center of this shift is Tropace
At Tropace, our mission is simple: to create high-quality, Afrocentric nutrition products that are both accessible and beneficial to people worldwide. But behind every brand, there is a story.
