KOO Bitter Orange Marmalade

KOO is an iconic South African brand that has become a household name since its establishment in 1940. Originally founded by the Langeberg Koöperasie Beperk, the brand was created to provide high-quality canned goods using fresh local produce from the fertile valleys of the Western Cape. Over the decades, it has evolved from a small cooperative effort into one of the most recognizable food brands in Africa.

Currently, the KOO brand is owned by Tiger Brands Limited, a major South African fast-moving consumer goods company. While the packaging in the image features German labeling for the European export market, the product remains deeply rooted in South African agriculture. Most KOO products are manufactured in South Africa, utilizing local harvests to maintain the brand's 'farm-to-table' reputation. Tiger Brands oversees the global distribution, ensuring that traditional favorites like this bitter orange marmalade reach international consumers.
