Our factories
Locations
We work with factories in South Africa, Kenya, Malawi, Brazil and Zimbabwe.
Standards
All our factories are either HACCP, BRC or ISO certified.
Ownership
Ownership varies. Until recently we have owned a macadamia nut factory in South Africa outright, but this factory is no independent from us. This frees us to engage on a level playing field with all factories.
