SASKO spreads sandwiches on Mandela Day   

This year, SASKO asked its bakeries across the country to pledge their 67 minutes to making sandwiches for the different charities in their communities. The initiative was a wonderful success.

On Tuesday, 18 July 2017, the SASKO team joined many South Africans in donating 67 minutes of their time to help others, and commemorate the 67 years of Mandela’s life spent fighting for equality.

All of SASKO’s bakeries nationally and at the head offices came together, armed with butter knives to make sandwiches in honor of Nelson Mandela with more than 16 000 sandwiches being distributed on the day.

It didn’t stop there, SASKO also collaborated with Jenny Morris to sell muffins and making homemade soup and bread at De Waterkant for The Haven in Cape Town. This initiative would guarantee a destitute person a full stomach and a roof over their heads for a few nights.

 

Because SASKO has been around for more than 80 years, it understands the importance of giving South Africans the sustenance they need without compromising on taste. Combined with a national network of world-class bakeries and mills all across South Africa, we ensure that you can enjoy locally made, superior quality goods every day. SASKO uses only the finest ingredients, milled, mixed and baked to tasty perfection.

At the forefront of baking and innovation, we’re always looking to improve our brand with the best methods. Our dedicated research and development department ensures that only the most advanced baking processes and milling techniques are adhered to – using the latest technology and equipment. The results shine through in soft, delicious slices of bread and consistently soft and fluffy flour that give every tasty, energy-filled bite a touch of greatness.
