OUR STORY
The 1960’s saw the birth of the flavour of Mac's Spice, as one of our founder’s family members created this spice to add a bit of personality to her favourite foods.
Today, the beloved spice has a new face, with the same taste since the first day it was blended.
This secret family recipe has been handed down and used amongst friends and family members to enjoy with their food and braai’s.
In the mid 1990’s the family decided to bottle the spice and create a fun, proudly South African label to share the great taste of mac spice as gifts around Christmases and birthdays. This however turned out be a big hit and the demand for the spice started rising.
In 2019 John decided to start marketing Mac's Spice to the local market and it became an overnight success, with the eye-catching packaging and the amazing flavour that this all round spice has to offer.
What started off with just a 100ml pot of The Original Mac's Spice, ended up as a range of thirteen products featuring eight different BBQ seasoning blends, 2 marinade basting sauces and our new Himalayan salt, Sea salt and Black Pepper grinders.
