Shopping for Saffa Goods and Groceries

Whether you have been overseas for years or just wrapping your head around the exchange rate, we decided to display all of our products in our good old Randler, in other words, South African Rands. The world is constantly changing and now with South Africa off the Red list the exchange rate between the Rand and other international currencies has never been this favorable. Now is the time to stock up for those family dinners and cocktail evenings with friends and wow them with your purely South African treats and spoil them, or keep them for quiet nights while everyone is sleeping but now is the time.
