Good news for peanut butter lovers! Tiger Brands, South Africa’s largest food producer, just opened a brand new factory dedicated to making their yummy peanut butter. This exciting development promises two things for consumers: lower prices and even more delicious peanut butter choices!
The new plant, located near Johannesburg, cost around 300 million rand (roughly $16 million) to build. But according to Tiger Brands, it’ll be worth every penny. The factory boasts special equipment that allows them to produce two different jar sizes at the same time, which means they can make peanut butter faster than ever before.
“We can crank out the peanut butter much quicker now,” said Dumo Mfini, who heads up the company’s culinary division. This increased speed also allows Tiger Brands to be more creative and introduce new peanut butter flavors and varieties – exciting news for anyone who likes a little adventure with their peanut butter!
But wait, there’s more! The new plant will also help Tiger Brands keep peanut butter affordable, which is especially important these days. The cost of ingredients, packaging, and even getting things delivered has been rising all over the world. This can make it tough for companies to keep their prices low.
But Tiger Brands has a plan! Their new factory is designed to be more efficient, which will bring down their production costs. They’ll also be offering more peanut butter in plastic tubs and tubes, which are cheaper than glass jars. This means you’ll be able to enjoy your favorite peanut butter spread without breaking the bank!
“We’re all about making peanut butter more affordable for everyone,” said Tiger Brands CEO Tjaart Kruger. “This new plant will help us do just that.”
So, next time you’re at the store, keep an eye out for Tiger Brands’ peanut butter. With a new factory, more options, and a focus on affordability, they’re spreading the good news for peanut butter fans everywhere!
