At Safico, we’re passionate about bringing the bold, beloved flavours of South Africa to your doorstep. From mouthwatering biltong, dry wors, and stokkies to nostalgic chips, chocolates, sweets, rusks, chutneys, sauces, and spices—our store is a celebration of everything that makes South African food so unforgettable.

Founded by Shelley and Vic in May 2023, Safico was born from a deep love for South African cuisine and a desire to share it with the local community. What started as a dream has grown into a vibrant, family-run business known for its friendly service, curated selection, and commitment to quality at affordable prices.

Safico isn’t just a shop—it’s a taste of home. For those who grew up with these flavours, we offer comfort and connection. For newcomers, we invite you to discover the rich culinary heritage of South Africa, one bite at a time.
