About Us

Our Story

Rooted in Malmesbury,
Inspired by Swartland Sunshine.

Our farm in Malmesbury — where it all begins.

📍

Let's keep it local. Our story starts on our small farm in Malmesbury, where we grow our own citrus. Inspired by the Swartland sunshine, we take fresh lemons, limes, and oranges, and gently dehydrate them to lock in all that vibrant flavour and aroma.

☀️

No additives, no nonsense — just pure, farm-grown goodness, perfect for your cocktail, morning tea, or baking. But wait, there's more! (Want ons kan nie net van sitrus leef nie.) We also source premium natural wellness powders — moringa, baobab, and beetroot — plus our power combo CBM+, from trusted local suppliers who care about quality as much as we do.

Heritage & Sustainability

An exquisite, reusable glass jar with heritage-inspired African patterns — packaging that reflects who we are and where we come from.

🎁

Our packaging is an important part of the YUMi experience. Inspired by our African heritage, our labels reflect the rich colours and patterns of the continent. We believe every jar should feel like a gift when it's received — something special, even before it's opened.

♻️

Sustainability is central to what we do. We believe beautiful products shouldn't come at the cost of the environment, which is why we package our products in reusable glass jars to help eliminate single-use plastics wherever possible.
