A vibrant blend of cultures and flavours – from the tip of Africa to the tip of the tongue!

Founded in 1994, Cape Herb & Spice started as an entrepreneurial endeavour and now forms part of the Libstar family of companies. We are based in Cape Town, a vibrant and cosmopolitan city situated at the tip of Africa. Our location is significantly situated along the West-African trading route explored by sailors in the 1400s. The Dutch East India Company, a dominant force in the spice trade, went on to establish a settlement in Cape Town in the mid-1600s, which acted as a midway point for their exchange with Asia. This mix of European, African and Asian cultures has given the city a rich culinary heritage, and it’s against this background that Cape Herb & Spice was formed. We operate across three sites in Cape Town and our capabilities include Spice, Tea & Fine Food Gifting. The pillars of our business are innovation, quality and a diverse product range. Two decades after starting in a barrow at the V&A Waterfront, Cape Herb & Spice exports a variety of private label and branded products to some of the top retailers globally and is a true South African success story.
