1994Open since 1994. That's 32 years. A family business; co-founder Johan is the South African behind the boerewors.
Our take
The company started because one South African in the family missed boerewors. A retired Polish sausage maker, Kaz Jachowicz, taught them smoking and curing, and since 1994 it has been a full-time family business making sausage weekly in Metchosin. Spices are mixed by hand for each batch, the products are gluten free, and hunters can have game turned into any of the house flavours.
