The Africa Nut Company was born from the journey of Khalil Goga, a South African whose love for the continent grew through years spent walking its streets, sharing its meals, and learning from its people.

For more than 15 years, Khalil worked across Africa in the not-for-profit sector, collaborating with communities from Nairobi to Dakar, from Addis to Cape Town. In every place, he found a common thread, that luxury and quality were not imported ideas, but deeply woven into African life. Whether in the aroma of Zanzibar’s spice markets or the quiet grace of a Senegalese meal, Africa’s beauty lies in the details, in how food tells stories, connects people, and celebrates the everyday.

That realization sparked The Africa Nut Company, a brand built on the belief that food can be both exquisite and meaningful, and that every flavor can carry a story of place, craft, and culture. Inspired by the words of Kenyan scholar Ali Mazrui — “You are not a country, Africa. You are a concept…You are a glimpse of the infinite”.

Giving back is at the heart of what we do. A portion of every sale supports charities within Africa. The Africa Nut Company continues to invest in the people and places that inspired its creation.
