The history of Montagu in South Africa

Montagu Dried Fruit & Nuts is a proudly South African brand that originated in the picturesque town of Montagu in the Western Cape.

Over the years, it has grown into a trusted name in the snacking industry, offering a wide range of dried fruits, nuts, seeds, and health-focused snacks across the country.

In 2014, Montagu became part of the Acorn Agri & Food family, a leading South African agriculture and food group with a century-long legacy. This partnership facilitated significant growth, enabling Montagu to expand its distribution both locally and internationally . By 2016, the brand had established over 138 franchise stores nationwide, reflecting its rapid expansion and popularity among South African consumers.

Ingredients

These lollies are crafted from a blend of minced dried fruits, primarily pear, peach, and apricot. To enhance their visual appeal, various colourants are added, including Sunset Yellow (E110), Ponceau (E124), Quinoline Yellow (E104), Green TF V4 (E133, E104, E110), and Grape PPM (E122, E133). The lollies are sweetened with sugar and infused with a mix of flavourants such as apricot, fig, peach, grape, and strawberry. To preserve freshness and maintain quality, sulphur dioxide (E220) is used as a preservative.
