Our History
SAFARI® Vinegar has been a staple in the kitchen and trusted helper around the home for decades. We are the original "naturally fermented" vinegar in South Africa and have been using our tried-and-tested methods for over 30 years with great success.
SAFARI® Vinegar is manufactured under licence by Cecil Vinegar Works, who has been manufacturing naturally fermented vinegar since 1936. Cecil Vinegar Works was acquired by Libstar Operations (Pty) Ltd in 2015.
