Business in the Spotlight: Michelle se Kombuis

When we get a call or WhatsApp from an unknown number, we are always very excited – unlike most people. A call or WhatsApp means someone far abroad wants to treat their parents or loved ones in South Africa to a delicious meal from our farm kitchen.

Michelle se Kombuis opened its doors in 2019 when Michelle Britz had to generate an income during the drought they experienced on their farm. They make delicious frozen dishes such as bobotie, lasagna, pies, puddings, soups and gluten-free dishes in their kitchen in the Ficksburg district in the Eastern Free State. Her sister Sandri Olivier operates one of their branches in Namibia.

Deliveries are done in Bloemfontein, Ladybrand, Clocolan, Bethlehem and Ficksburg; and distribution can also be arranged in Pretoria, Alberton, Randburg, Durban and the Garden Route. We have children and family members from countries such as Australia, the Seychelles, New Zealand, Canada, the USA, England and Namibia who treat their loved ones with a hearty meal. Our motto is LIVE YOUR PASSION. Give us a try!

The World Guide is where South African businesses from all over the world come together to form a community. Currently, the guide has just over 1 000 listed businesses, from Afrikaans doctors in New Zealand, to biltong shops in London.

Networks are more than mere businesses; it is also a valuable way of building a support base for those days when the longing for a South African wine, gathering around a braai fire and the Afrikaner hospitality becomes too much.
