WHO WE ARE
Pumpkin Patch is a family run company that takes great pride in supplying premium quality fruit and vegetable products to the finest retail and hospitality institutions in the Western Cape. OUR PACKAGING
In 2018, we embarked on a mission to reduce (and hopefully soon eliminate) single-use plastics in our food products. We now package our products in plant-based (PLA - cornstarch) biopla
stics to improve the environmental footprint and sustainability of our business. To date, we have reduced our single-use plastics by more than 70%. OUR PRODUCE
We source exclusively from GLOBAL GAP certified farmers around the Western Cape, which ensures that our products are always fresh, traceable, and free from harmful chemicals. FOOD SAFETY
Our packhouse in Stellenbosch was purposefully built according to ISO22002, HACCP, and Global Food Safety Initiative (GFSI) guidelines for food processing facilities. In October 2018, we were audited by Intertek and achieved a score of 93,3% in terms of our food safety compliance. DISTRIBUTION
We utilise our own refrigerated vehicle fleet to maintain the cold chain from our packhouse directly to our customers. This ensures that we shorten the time between product manufacturing and delivery, and more importantly, allows us to maintain complete control over the quality of our products in transit.
