"With over 300 000 Saffas proudly calling the United Kingdom home, it's no secret that living abroad comes with its share of longing for the taste of home. Whether it's the braais, the warm sun or even iconic South African brands, we know you miss it all," says Bokomo.
Bokomo says that it has brought the taste of home to South Africans for generations and has become a beloved household name in South Africa and among South Africans living abroad.
The brand adds that this Heritage Day, when Saffas celebrated the rich tapestry of South African culture in their home country, Bokomo reached out to its extended family living across the seas by making sure to start their day with a South African cereal.
Bokomo marketing manager Diyaana Allie says, "We are celebrating our diverse community of South Africans living in the United Kingdom. We want to ensure that they can relive the tastes and memories of home, and by delivering our cereal for free, we hope to add a sprinkle of South African joy to their day."
"To all Saffas in the United Kingdom, we want you to know that you're still part of the Bokomo family. And what better way to celebrate your South Africanness than with your favourite cereal on Heritage Day," the brand adds.
For one day only, on Heritage Day, Bokomo delivered the cereal to the doorsteps of South Africans for free.
Allie says, "At Bokomo, we understand the deep connection South Africans have with their homeland, and we recognise the importance of maintaining those cultural ties, especially on Heritage Day. That's why we're thrilled to bring the flavour of South Africa to the United Kingdom this year. We aim to provide a taste of home, a moment of nostalgia and a sense of togetherness for our fellow Saffas living abroad."
"Maybe you don't miss load shedding, but we know you're missing the comforting taste of Bokomo. Well, we brought it to you, Saffas, right to your doorstep. Happy Heritage Day. Bokomo is good for every South African, even those who don't live on home soil," the brand concludes.
