SLOW-BURNING

THE WORLDS FINEST CHARCOAL

Namibian Retort Charcoal is a collective of Namibian farmers who are tackling the problem of bush encroachment head-on by turning invasive bushes into high-quality wholesale charcoal and briquettes, ready to be shipped anywhere in the world.

Read our story

Namibian Retort Charcoal is made from Acacia-family encroachment bush. These wild bush species thrive in the hot and arid conditions of northern Namibia, making their wood especially dense, hard and dry – ideal for slow-burning charcoal.

Buy the world’s best BBQ- and Restaurant grade charcoal.

It’s so ideal, we only need 3 to 4 tons of wood to create 1 ton of charcoal – compared to a significantly higher 10 tons of wood for every ton charcoal in parts of Europe and the US – making it both labour and price competitive.
