History
Bokomo Foods (Bolandse Kooperatiewe Molenaars) started as a wheat
co-operative about 80 years ago and has since grown and expanded greatly to become one of South Africa's largest manufacturer of cereals. Bokomo also has a base in the
United Kingdom as well as an alliance with

Australian food manufacturer.
Over the years, Bokomo broke into the baking and dessert market, acquiring Moir's, South Africa's largest range of baking products. More recently, they also acquired Kwality Biscuits, the manufacturer of products such as ''Romantic Dreams'', ''Munch-A-Lot'', ''Centre Court'' and ''Vinta''.
Many Bokomo products are endorsed by the Heart Foundation of South Africa.
