The Funky Ouma Story

"Funky Ouma" is the result of a very funky ouma of 10 grandchildren that’s been playing around with food and spices all her life, but only decided at 67 to start her own brand together with her youngest daughter Johannita Eksteen.

Funky Ouma offers wonderful farm fresh herb-filled salts and spices. We use natural, course Himalayan salt from Walvis Bay and the Himalayas. This salt is ideal for cooking, braai, marinating, baking bread, or even just table salt. It’s a tastier healthier and more natural substitute for your everyday salts and spices.

Funky Ouma offers a variety of salts, all packed in grinders, tins or travel tins. All mixtures are filled with quality naturally homegrown herbs e.g rosemary, oregano, and other natural ingredients such as onion flakes, sweet peppers, dried chilies, lemon zest, black and exotic green and red peppercorns, and coriander.

Since its inception, Funky Ouma has steadily grown its product range, starting with our delicious herb-filled salts and spices and expanding to include other products such as our coffee, extra-virgin olive oil, gift boxes, and turmeric and ginger booster. Our commitment to quality and taste remains as strong as ever, and we continue to source only the finest ingredients for our products. As we expand our range, we remain dedicated to serving our clients in the best way possible, offering personalized customer service and attention to detail that's hard to find in today's fast-paced world. So come join us on our journey and experience the funk for yourself!
