Local SMME rolls out nutrition product range

Kelosika Products was established in 2005. It produces Bonutrix, a range of foods that includes three sandwich/porridge spreads and ready-to-use infant supplementary feeds.

The products have proved highly popular with nurseries, orphanages, clinics and both government and private health facilities. The company's factory is in Lobatse while its head office is in Kanye. It employs 13 people, 12 of whom are Batswana from Kanye, Lobatse and surrounding areas. In an interview during the just-ended SMME Conference and Fair in Gaborone, the company's Production Supervisor, Lillian Tshosa, said the fast-rising firm had sealed a partnership with Medswana, one of the country's leading pharmaceutical distributors whose network covers all of Botswana's major towns and villages.
