Bokomo Cereals

Bokomo is one of South Africa’s most iconic breakfast cereal brands, deeply rooted in the country’s agricultural history. Established in the early 1920s by a group of seven grain farmers as a cooperative company, the brand has grown over a century to become a staple in South African households. It is widely recognized for producing legendary products such as Weet-Bix, ProNutro, Otees, and Corn Flakes.

The manufacturing of Bokomo products remains centered in South Africa, utilizing local grains and production facilities as part of its heritage. The brand transitioned from a cooperative model to a corporate one over several decades, eventually coming under the umbrella of major South African food producers.

Today, Bokomo is part of the Pioneer Foods portfolio, which was acquired by the global beverage and snack giant PepsiCo. This acquisition solidified the brand's place within a massive international network, while maintaining its operations and headquarters in South Africa. As of 2026, PepsiCo remains the ultimate owner, ensuring the brand's continued distribution and innovation within the FMCG sector.
