For over 50 years Cococare has been producing quality Health and Beauty Aid products that are consistent with the needs of our customers.  Our first ever product was the Cocoa Butter Soap, which was packaged in a yellow and brown counter display. To this day, yellow and brown continue to not only be the main colors of the brand, but are also still the colors on our cocoa butter products.  

We incorporate natural ingredients such as cocoa butter, vitamin e, coconut oil, argan oil and shea butter into our range of products.  Over the years our offering has expanded to include 100% oils, lip balms and hair care products.  Our diverse line of products have been well received which is evidenced by our growth both in the United States and internationally.  We are confident that once you have tried our products you will become a loyal and valued customer.

Read below for detailed history of Cococare

History
The history of Cococare began in 1969, when the founders realized that many pregnant women were using cocoa butter to help lessen the appearance of stretch marks. At the time, cocoa butter was only being sold by one major company and they only shipped through mail order. It then became apparent to the founders that there was an opportunity to expand access to cocoa butter by selling it to retail stores.

This is when Cococare decided to establish and incorporate our first office in the basement of a building in Fort Lee, New Jersey. The creation of Cococare’s first product, Cocoa Butter Soap, was made and individually packaged to be sold at the checkout counter. The founders also went door to door selling to local stores in both New York and New Jersey, while personally delivering orders from the back of their car.

Expansion and Growth of Cococare in the 1970’s
Consumer demand and sales were increasing, resulting in Cococare gaining more exposure and success. During the early '70s, the business began to grow and blossom, with products expanding into lotions, creams and sun care products.

As sales continued to grow, Cococare relocated to a larger office and warehouse space, hired more team members and office staff. The headquarters were then located to Northvale, New Jersey. By this time, Cococare had already placed ten products into the market and distribution had been growing across the United States.

Continued Progression in the 1980’s
In the '80s, we continued on with our successful momentum by the expansion of products as well as relocating once again. Later in the decade, soaps, shampoos and lotions made by Cococare were then placed in hotels throughout the U.S. This included some well known establishments such as the Helmsley Palace in New York City. The 100% Cocoa Butter Stick was introduced by Cococare and has become one of the most popular items in the 100% All Natural Skincare category! The Cococare offices made a final move to Dover, New Jersey in 1987 and this has been the home of the Cococare headquarters ever since.

Expansion of Other Products
Since there was a demand and higher interest for more hair and skin care products, Cococare expanded into different product lines. We started to offer a hair care line that included the Coconut Moisturizing Shampoo. Over time more hair treatments and styling products were introduced such as the Coconut Hair Conditioner, Coconut Hair Shine and Argan Hair Serum. Face care products such as a our Vitamin E Cream Wash and our Tea Tree Oil Facial Toner were added to the Cococare product line, letting Cococare cover a variety of different beauty needs for our customers. Of course, the company didn’t stop after the great momentum we had gained! The expansion continued with Vitamin E, Shea Butter and Coconut lines, which includes a variety of products such as oils, creams, lip balms and gels.

In recent years, many women started gravitating towards all natural products for their beauty care needs. We noticed this change in product preference and in order to meet our consumer’s new skin care needs, we decided to expand our products once again and introduced a full line of 100% natural oils and essential oils. Both product lines received positive acknowledgement and popularity. Cococare has been able to continue expanding various products into different lines such as hair, face, feet, lips, and skin care.

Cococare’s Success Today
Today, Cococare continues to provide full distribution across the United States as well as internationally. The company is committed to providing customers with the highest quality products that promote healthy skin care and natural ingredients. Today, some of these products have become favorites among Cococare customers: 100% Cocoa Butter Stick, Cocoa Butter Lip Balm, All-Natural Vitamin E Body Oil, 100% Argan Oil and 100% Coconut Oil.

It is amazing how Cococare’s success began with one concept, cocoa butter, and then expanded into a full line of other skin and hair care products. Cococare has always been committed to providing customers with the highest quality of products that promote healthy skin care, and will continue to do so in the years to come.
