Macaweb: About Our Company
Navitas LLC, Maca Power USA, and Macaweb.com, were founded in March 2003. We have been selling the Maca Power brand since 2000 worldwide through our Australian office and decided it was time to bring it to the North American market. We provide only the finest 100% Certified Organic Maca powder available.
To fulfill this goal, we work solely with our partners in Peru who have obtained Skal International organic certification and have been cultivating and processing Maca root since 1998. We are dedicated to supplying organically cultivated and processed products of high nutritive and medicinal value from Andean and Amazonian plants. Our production process enables us to develop products that retain their nutritive and medicinal properties. In the first phase of development, Navitas LLC and Maca Power are concentrating their activities on the organic cultivation and processing of Maca.
Later we plan to offer it in a variety of packaging and sizes, and to develop food and beverage products prosperity of the Andean people who farm this unique product in a time-honored way, by providing a guaranteed market for their sole crop. Because we believe in giving back to the planet in which we live, we plan to donate a portion of our profits to environmental agencies and to the people of Peru, as our company grows!
