Background

PROTEA is the national plant of South Africa, which had a particularly strong influence on the founding couple during their semester abroad. A special and unforgettable impression was left on them when, shortly after a devastating bushfire in a national park, they saw the PROTEA as the only flowering plant in a burned environment. They transferred these attributes to their products. Just like the PROTEA, their products are plant-based, especially resilient, and leave a lasting impression.

Benefits

Increase in Trust:

At PROTEA, the customer is at the center of everything. That is why PROTEA offers its customers in the online shop www.protea-shop.com, for example, a 30-day money-back guarantee.

Greater Reach:
