Banhoek Chilli Oil, a natural oil brand from South Africa, is expanding its presence in the UK with a new listing in over 320 Sainsbury’s stores, beginning 12 October.
The development follows the brand’s entry into the UK market in 2022. Established in 2017, Banhoek Chilli Oil has already gained traction across several international markets, including the US, Ireland, Denmark, Germany, and Australia, in addition to its home market of South Africa, where it holds the top position in its category.
The expansion into Sainsbury’s will build on the brand’s growing UK footprint and aims to capitalise on increasing consumer demand for premium, spice-led condiments. Banhoek Chilli Oil is currently available in Original and Garlic variants (RRP £8.50/250ml).
Co-founder Ken Kinsey-Quick commented: “Securing this listing with Sainsbury’s is a significant achievement for Banhoek Chilli Oil and underscores our commitment to growing our presence in key global markets. With the UK consumer’s evolving appetite for hot and spicy flavours, we see tremendous potential for continued growth.”
