Future ready!
ㅤ
David Hallet (Chief Operating Officer) and Schalk Pienaar (Senior Buyer) recently travelled to India.
ㅤ
They first met with our partner company MANE KANCOR to build deeper relationships and understand the supply chain for oleoresins (natural concentrated extracts derived from spices) and spices. This facilitated alignment on our route to market and specification requirements.
ㅤ
Schalk and David then attended the International Spice Conference, where the theme was ‘Getting Future Ready’. Here they were able to engage with trusted and future suppliers on key ingredients for our Sub-Saharan African business, while learning about the latest research and trends affecting the market. Some of these included the impact of advancing technology, climate change, farming practices, and regulations on market dynamics.
ㅤ
David and Schalk also had the privilege of planting a tree at the very impressive Angamaly site.
ㅤ
We are very proud to be part of the wider MANE family, and to partner with such passionate and knowledgeable teams.
