Meet the Staff

Maasai Honey team members work collaboratively from our Ololosokwan headquarters, our sales office in Arusha City, as well as other locations across the globe. At our village headquarters in Ololosokwan, staff members manage the main office and shop, while also carrying out all beekeeping and production activities with the women’s group. Products from our Ololosokwan headquarters are also sent to Arusha city where our sales team manages product distribution, facilitating connections with safari lodges and other customers across Tanzania. The founder and director of Maasai Honey, Krysten Ericson, lives in Connecticut, USA. She travels to both Ololosokwan Village and Arusha City three times a year to work with team members in both locations.
