1. Herbal Goodness ($6M/year)

Dr. Unoma Okorafor, founder and CEO of Herbal Goodness, came up with the idea for her business while pregnant with her third child. She wanted to eat healthier and was advised to consume papaya for its health benefits. However, she realized that the papayas available in stores were genetically modified and lacked the quality she experienced in Nigeria. This sparked her passion to provide organic superfood products, starting with papaya leaf tea, and has since expanded to a wide range of nutrient-dense herbs and supplements.
