Herbania: A Story of Friendship, Family and Fuerteventura

Our "why"

Sometimes life leads you to places that feel like home – even when they’re many flight hours away. For us, Fuerteventura is one of those places. For years we’ve been drawn back again and again to this beautiful Canary Island, which offers not only breathtaking landscapes but also wonderful people.

Wie alles begann

Fuerteventura has been our retreat for many years. We come to dive, enjoy nature and spend our precious family time here. Along the way you naturally get to know the locals – and sometimes very special friendships grow out of that.

That’s how it was with Henrik and Fanny. The two are just as adventurous as we are and made a conscious decision to build their lives on Fuerteventura. They’ve started a family here that’s full of warmth and joy.

Our bond grew through shared barbecue evenings on the beach, trips with the children and long conversations about life. Supporting one another and sharing ideas simply felt natural.

Die Idee zu Herbania

At some point Henrik and Fanny had this thought: why not build something that reflects exactly the values that matter to them? Nature, sustainability and quality – wrapped up in skincare products as authentic as the island itself.

They put their heads together and began developing their first formulations. Aloe vera in particular, which grows almost everywhere here on Fuerteventura, quickly became a central ingredient in their products.

But anyone who has ever lived on a small island knows: building a brand and making its products known beyond the island’s shores is anything but easy.

Warum wir Teil von Herbania wurden

When Henrik and Fanny told us about their idea, it was quickly clear to us: we want to be part of it. We live in Germany, where we have the means to organise distribution on the mainland.

So we simply decided to work on Herbania together. While Henrik and Fanny develop the products and take care of production, we handle logistics and distribution on the mainland.

For us, Herbania is more than just a collaboration. It’s a heartfelt project born out of our friendship.

Ein kleines Team mit einem großen Traum

Herbania isn’t a big brand with a million-euro budget. We’re four people who believe in an idea and simply got started.

The beautiful thing about Herbania is that it stays so approachable. We know every product inside out, because Henrik and Fanny put so much love into the formulations themselves. The aloe vera in the products is harvested right there on the Canary Islands.

And when we sit together on the beach and the kids race through the sand, we keep spinning ideas for how to make Herbania even better – for you and for us.

Herbania – eine kleine Marke mit viel Herz

Herbania isn’t a big business. It’s an idea that has grown through friendship, trust and the love of an island. And when you hold one of our products in your hands, you know there are real people behind it – people who simply find joy in creating something beautiful.

That’s our story. And we look forward to continuing it – perhaps a little with you, too.
