Leading by example is a key part of the Rainbow vision. It's what keeps us nourishing the nation and allows us to connect with our Coop. Thank you, Nirvaad, for the kind words. We appreciate them more than you know! #WeAreRainbow #NourishingTheNation #LeadershipInAction
About us
RAINBOW was founded by Stanley Methven on his Father’s farm in 1960. He first sold from a stall in central Durban and the demand for RAINBOW’s chicken grew quickly, leading to the commissioning of the first processing plant in Hammarsdale in 1963. Today, RAINBOW is one of South Africa’s largest Chicken Producers. We are a fully integrated Broiler producer that breed and rear our livestock which we feed from our Epol Feed Mills. We process, distribute and market fresh, frozen, value-added and further-processed chicken to our customers and consumers. RAINBOW has more than 100 farms, 3 processing plants, 2 further processing plants and 6 animal feed mills across South Africa

Yesterday, we had the opportunity to nourish young minds in Carolina, Mpumalanga. Rainbow hosted a Career Day where a number of industry professionals and local colleges shared insights and knowledge with the learners on different career paths, education and trainings required. The wet weather did not dampen the learner's spirits but instead watered what will be South Africa's bright future. #NourishingYoungMinds #WeAreRainbow

For R&D Executive, Salisha Singh, success in business is all about how well we can deal with change. It also means taking action for the things we can change and accepting those that we cannot. By actively "changing the changeable," Salisha believes that you can take ownership of your life and situations, rather than feeling powerless against circumstances beyond your control. #MeetTheCoop #WeAreRainbow
