Durban-based food and beverage company Forest Fairies has set its sights on the Japanese market.

The company is one of 30 that will participate in the 44th FOODEX Exhibition that will take place in Chiba City, Japan from 5-8 March.

The compay has been in business for 14 years manufacturing peanut clusters, hot chocolate, chocolate slabs and nougat to South African retail stores and hospitality industries.  



“We have travelled to other African countries before to market our company as part of our international marketing strategy. The trade fair in Japan gives us another opportunity to go beyond Africa and meet potential clientele from all over the world,” says director Thejus Khan.
