About Us

Our brand is regarded as a pioneer in the snacking industry for offering a delicious and diverse range of modern snack options that support consumers who aspire to lead a healthier lifestyle.

A humble beginning: Our story began in 2001, with a bright-eyed young boy from the town of Montagu, venturing to the bustling streets of Johannesburg to start a small business.
Approximately 10 years later, with many twists and turns along the way, Montagu launched a trusted South African brand, with numerous branded stores forming part of the company's portfolio. This, however, was only the beginning.

In 2018, Montagu became a part of the Acorn Agri and Food family - a leading South African vertically integrated agriculture and food group with a hundred-year legacy. As part of this transformation, Montagu has grown significantly to hold both local and international distribution and supplies products to a large number of Montagu Branded stores, as well as numerous retail and convenience stores across the continent.
