The Oshin Organics Story
Made with Love in the Pristine Islands of Papua New Guinea
Oshin Organics is committed to crafting high quality coconut products that nurture the body, mind and spirit, while being gentle on the environment. We grow and harvest our own coconuts in the pristine islands of Papua New Guinea, where the benefits of coconuts have long been known and loved by the locals. Now we’re sharing the coconut love with the world, while supporting local communities and employees with safe and sustainable workplace and trade practices. Our coconut products are hand-crafted with care and distributed globally to our valued customers. But as far as our story goes, that’s just the beginning…

Oshin Organics Director
Our History
Oshin Organics was founded in 2015 as ‘MaxtoneHaus’, named in honour of the co-founder and late fiancé of the company’s Director, Ernestine Kong.
We relaunched as ‘Oshin Organics’ in 2018, in preparation for releasing our products to a global market. ‘Oshin’ was chosen as a play on the word ‘ocean’, symbolic of our location in the tranquil islands of Papua New Guinea, where organic coconuts grow wild and the sun shines on crystal blue waters.
Oshin Organics currently has teams in Kimbe and Port Moresby, PNG, as well as Canberra and Brisbane, Australia. Our ingredients are ethically and locally sourced in Papua New Guinea, providing employment and training opportunities for people in the local community.
The Oshin Organics team continues the work of the original MaxtoneHaus brand, passionately creating skincare and health products made from the natural goodness of coconuts. We aim to promote a worldwide community of love, health and wellbeing, and have adopted the motto “Give Yourself Time”, encouraging our customers to slow down, breathe and nurture themselves and each other
Our Founder & Director
Ernestine Kong is a prominent business woman in Papua New Guinea, as the Founder and Director of Oshin Organics. Creating an organic and natural coconut product range which promotes sustainable practices and supports the local community, Ernestine is committed to delivering high-quality products to customers around the world.

Our Objective
Oshin Organics is aiming to share the benefits of coconut oil with the world, crafting natural products for the skin, hair, health, and even your four-legged-friends.
We achieve this by engaging local people and resources in Papua New Guinea, using organically-grown ingredients, encouraging sustainable agricultural practices, and continually striving for excellence in innovation.
We believe sharing Oshin Organics with the world will help highlight the many benefits of using coconut products in our everyday lives, while helping to make the world a better place.
Our Vision
Our passion for giving back to the community will always be at the forefront of everything we do.
As Oshin Organics operations continue to expand, we will demonstrate our commitment to developing both local bonds across Papua New Guinea and international trust in our brand.
We will continue our fair and sustainable practices and partnerships with the local community, while supporting safe and modern manufacturing operations for workers.
And importantly, we will always listen to our customers and be guided by their needs as we continue to produce high quality natural and organic health and beauty products.
Our Products
Oshin Organics products are all natural, and free from harmful preservatives and chemicals. All of our products contain natural coconut, which is a rich source of antioxidants, vitamins and minerals, essential to healthy, radiant skin.
By combining the benefits of coconut with other nurturing, natural ingredients, Oshin Organics products hydrate and moisturise, while the beautiful aromas of the tropics tantalise the senses.
Our devoted team in Papua New Guinea creates our gorgeous range of handmade products using sustainable, traditional methods, and we take pride in using only locally sourced natural ingredients.
Our Initiatives
Oshin Organics is committed to protecting and nurturing people and the planet.
Our products are all natural, vegan, and not tested on animals. We employ strict quality control practices to ensure the highest quality products for our customers, while also providing a safe and supportive workplace for our team.
As a Papua New Guinea owned and operated business, Oshin Organics has joined the Slave Free Trade Association to ensure our employees, supply chain and partners support local communities with fair conditions and sustainable practices.
