  • ABOUT US

    What started as endless searches looking for good quality and reasonably priced goods, culminated in the formation of this business. I found that there was never much of a choice. You face the option of either buying a cheap product, which is made in China and does not last, or at the other end, an excellent quality product, which is very expensive. I never have the option of buying a quality product at a price one can afford. The company’s goal is to source these products, and make them readily available to the South African consumer.

    The first product to be launched is a range of knives imported from Italy. They are “Made in Italy”, which means primarily:

           • products made from the beginning till the end, entirely in Italy
           • products which maintain the ancient tradition of the industry and know-how accumulated for decades
           • utilization of the finest materials
           • the production of the highest quality products
           • class and style unique for the Italian knives
           • creative and innovative designs

    Made in Italy products range from fashion accessories, shoes and handbags to furniture and food, from lingerie, wedding dresses and cosmetics to motor vehicles, toys, religious objects, taps and fittings and many more. Italy is the homeland of many of the world's most famous fashion designers and labels, Armani, Gucci, Diesel, Dolce&Gabbana, Fila, Ferrari and Versace, just to name a few. The country seems to have a knack of turning out top quality talent, products and clothes that have a worldwide appeal. Italian style is rightly celebrated as being unique and unmistakable with its elegance and endless creativity and innovation

    From a marketing perspective, country of origin is a way to differentiate the product from its competitors. Research has found that products, identical in every respect except for their country-of-origin, were perceived differently by consumers. Country of origin has an impact on consumers' quality perceptions of a product, as well as ultimately, preference for and willingness to buy that product. Furthermore, consumers tend to have a relative preference to products from their own country or may have a relative preference for or aversion against products that originate from certain countries.

    Why does one want to import products from Italy or other countries in the EU? They are more expensive than the products that are already available on the market in South Africa. The answer is quite simple, QUALITY. Quality does come at a higher cost but at the same time, you have the pleasure and enjoyment of using a product that lasts. Is this not what we all want?

    Keep on checking out our website for further exciting products that are be launched soon.

    The knives are made by Kaimano, a company established in Italy in 1920, which today is the undisputed leader in its market segment.

    Kaimano brings to the table razor-sharp knives that represent quality, safety and design. These knives can cut safely with the least possible effort and have been approved by the Top Chefs in Italy.

    The different lines of Kaimano knives are designed to meet the real needs and tastes of the consumer, whose way of life is always changing.
    What gives these Kaimano knives the extra cutting edge?

           • Kaimano is the No 1 brand for knives in Italy
           • Finishing, sharpening and high quality materials
           • Exclusive and ergonomic shapes
           • Special stainless steel blade
           • Long lasting special blade sharpening
           • Ultra resistant polypropylene handle
           • Dishwasher proof, including the wooden handles

    The Kaimano knife range is made up of different Series. There is the Oscar Series, which are steak knives with multilayered wooden handles. There is the Classic Series, the Dinamik Series, the Itlicus Series and the Premium Series which all have ultra resistant polypropylene handles. These series offer a wide range of table knives, steak knives and kitchen knives. The production process and materials used are the same for all Series, the main difference being the design of the handles and the width of the blade (refer to the product catalogue for more information). The stainless steel blade has excellent non corrosive properties which are ideal for food contact and the blade remains polished all the time.

    The newly launched Pizza knife’s blade and handle shape, allows you to cut the pizza by keeping your hand and arm in a natural and comfortable position. The knife has a special tip to cut the crust easily till the border of the plate or pan and a wide blade for more precise cuts.

    There are also the dynamic Kaimano swivel peelers that no home can afford to be without.
