About The Good Charcoal Company

Founded in 2020, The Good Charcoal Company is disrupting the charcoal industry with healthier and cleaner charcoal. Sustainably sourced from the Namibian bush in Africa, where "bush encroachment" threatens open grasslands needed for people and wildlife alike, The Good Charcoal is made from acacia which burns hotter, cleaner, more evenly than oak or hickory. With a longer burn time than traditional charcoal products, brand fans can lower their environmental footprint using less charcoal for each BBQ session. In addition to creating quality charcoal, The Good Charcoal Company aims to give back on its home turf by partnering with local communities nationwide to support and sponsor free weekly BBQs for those experiencing food insecurity. Setting a precedent for the charcoal industry, The Good Charcoal Company prioritizes its mission of providing the "Three Goods: Good Charcoal, Good for the Environment, and Good for the Community."
