Cape Herb & Spice Ongoing Available Job Recruitment- Apply Now!

Founded in 1994, Cape Herb & Spice started as an entrepreneurial endeavour and now forms part of the Libstar family of companies.  We are based in Cape Town, a vibrant and cosmopolitan city situated at the tip of Africa. Our location is significantly situated along the West-African trading route explored by sailors in the 1400’s. The Dutch East India Company, a dominant force in the spice trade, went on to establish a settlement in Cape Town in the mid 1600’s, which acted as a midway point for their exchange with Asia. This mix of European, African and Asian cultures has given the city a rich culinary heritage, and it’s against this background that Cape Herb & Spice was formed.
