Garuka Bars

Garuka Bars is named after one of the few remaining mountain gorillas ranging the wilderness of Virunga National Park in the Democratic Republic of Congo. Garuka needs protection and you need all-natural energy. We’re working on both. Our bars are packed full of simple, wholesome ingredients, and a percentage of each sale goes towards gorilla conservation. Garuka and others like him have suffered the crossfire of human conflict, poaching, and the stresses of encroaching human activity. Today, their future looks bleak. As a company, we’d like to restore their chance at a better future, and what better inspiration than the meaning of Garuka’s full name, which translates from a Rwandan dialect to “Return Well”. So, when you choose to pick up a Garuka Bar to return your energy, you’re also supporting a cause to return well the future of the mountain gorilla.
