THE STORY OF CHAKALAKA

Founder Leeto Tlou learned about chakalaka while visiting South Africa. At night the community would gather and enjoy grilled dinner, with a side of this vibrant bean dish. Not only were the flavors of chakalaka delectable, Leeto was also taken by the sense of togetherness in which it was enjoyed. He was struck with inspiration to mix worlds together by introducing this lively dish and the Chakalaka experience to you, your family and friends.

“Chakalaka is about coming together through shared meals and stories. We make it possible for people to connect and fully experience the vibrant flavors of life in an easy to prepare, healthy and fun meal.”

– Founder and CEO, Leeto Tlou
