Pesto Princess Praised!

We are very excited for Afripreneurs, Pesto Princess who just received a great review from Pick n Pay, Africa's largest and most consistently successful retailers of food.

Well done! Keep up the great work and supplying our tastebuds with a little taste of heaven!

Here is a snippet of the review:

"Dive into a new range of delicious homemade pestos. As far as I'm concerned, the secret to a good cook is someone who knows what ingredients to always have on hand. Good olive oil, great parmesan, fresh fruit and vegetables, and pesto.

Think about it - what other foodstuff can you use on pizzas, in pastas, on toast and crackers, as a dip, mixed in with mayonnaise, or as a salad dressing? Truly, pesto is a marvelous chameleon.

But there's pesto, and then there's pesto. Some pestos are thin and low on flavour, or have a funny texture, or don't pack a punch. And then there's Pesto Princess. Free of preservatives, flavourants and colourants, this is pesto handmade with love. And fresh ingredients."

A little reading for our Swedish friends

On the 20th October, Afriversity CEO Thorgeir Einarsson was invited to speak at the annual Skandinaviens Enskilda Bank( SEB) charity convention, featuring some Sweden´s largest corporations, charities and foundations.

The function´s aim was to help deepen the dialogue on how different actors in society can cooperate and work together in addressing urgent global challenges while upholding Corporate Social Responsibility. Of course, Thorgeir was a great success and SEB decided to feature his story in their latest newsletter. 

The article is in Swedish only
