The QUEEN OF CUISINE

Nicky Chiloane

“The secret is the love you put into what you create! My happy place is creating in the kitchen and I love seeing someone smile and ask for more! I hope that will be every person that eats our Trail Food!”

Quick on the uptake, Nicky loves to cook and create new dishes. Quietly efficient, she makes sure that every meal leaving her kitchen has passed the Queen of Cuisine quality test!

HERDER OF THE HELPLESS
Rue Madzimure

“I love what I do. Every day brings a new puzzle to solve and a chance to improve how we do things. What makes it even better is working with a fantastic team who share the same passion for adventure. It’s incredibly rewarding to support hikers and explorers in their journeys, and I’m thrilled to be part of a company that makes their adventures a little bit easier and a lot more enjoyable!”

Rue is the quiet and the calm in the midst of the chaos. Her good business head keeps things under control and makes sure what needs to happen, happens!

One of the Main Maniacs
Trish Scaife

“Working at The Trail Food Co. gives me an excuse to talk about stuff I love doing, and do loads of hiking! I get to meet interesting, like-minded people and promote beautiful and wild places that benefit from soft-touch tourism.”

I love being in the bush, and what could be better than helping to run a company that actively promotes this, plus has a genuine desire to try and pass this love on to others while keeping them well fed?”

BE BRAVE

Our Mission

To enjoy the experience of locally made, tasty, nutritious food while exploring the outdoors!

In a nutshell, we want people to have access to really tasty, healthy, convenient food while enjoying the magic of being in nature.

BE DARING

What We Offer

You should be outside. Enjoying the views. Listening to the sounds and rhythms of nature.

Feeling the sun on your back or the breeze tickling your neck. This is what it’s all about!

We love nothing more than spending time outdoors ourselves, and while we know that food helps us create and enjoy experiences, we don’t want you to spend any more time than necessary working on meal prep, leave that to us.

TAKE THE LEAP

How We Happened

The Trail Food Company was the brainchild of Di Tipping-Woods, who was on a walking trail in the Timbavati with friends.

One of her friends made dehydrated food as a hobby, and Di was blown away by the healthy, lightweight meals.

Subsequently, Di purchased a food dehydrator and began field testing different recipes on safari guides.
