During their early development stages, every growing child in South Africa deserves access to the required nutrients to fully grow, develop and reach their full genetic potential. We know that protein-energy malnutrition is a major cause of stunted growth in children in our country. We also know that families often struggle to afford and provide their children with the daily required bio-available proteins in their meals.
Through our subsidiary StartWell Foods (Pty) Ltd, we manufacture premium quality ready-to-eat meals specifically designed for growing children’s needs in vulnerable communities.
