SOUTH AFRICAN
PEPPERS –
DELIGHT IN THE BITE !
PEPPERS
A unique
production process
A unique production process creates fresh and crisp piquant cherry peppers that are preservative free with an unmistakable taste!
The piquant pepper fruits have their origin in South Africa and the
bush plant reach a high of 1,5 metres and has bright red fruits
which ripen from below to top
Unique red peppers
These small red peppers are often referred to as Cherry Peppers. With their deep red colour and unique "bite size” they resemble the cherry or even cherry tomatoes. Once bitten, the sweetness and piquant taste explode in ones mouth with a tantalising sensation.
The zesty capsicum is just enough and perfectly balanced with a sweetness, sour and crunch known to our crisp fruit.

Social Responsibility
At Gates to Africa we are proud to support the South African Communities where we are operating.
To produce peppers there is a lot of picking and desending by hand – so today we have created more than 1600 agricultural jobs in the area of Polokwane. Mufama is a major employer with a staff complement of 400 direct jobs at the production facility in Polokwane.
As well as the employment, we have created, we are also partner with around approximately 18 farmers each with an average of 2 -15 hectares. We are supporting them through capital training which included detailed manuals on all aspects of commercial farming. Mufama also visit the farmers regularly to offer technical help and check the fields. Through this, we have created valuable and mutually beneficial partnership with DTI and IDC. We are also involved in various Broad Based Black Economic Empowerment (BBBEE) farming initiatives as part of our Corporate Social Investment (CSI) programme.
