About Kekkel en Kraai
Our first shop - 1996
Kekkel en Kraai was established in 1996 as an offset point for Tydstroom who, at that stage was owned by Bokomo. The first shop opened it’s doors in 1996 in Malmesbury in the Swartland(Western Cape). From there, many more Kekkel en Kraai shops were opened and by 2008 we had over 70 shops, mostly in the Western and Eastern Cape. Today we service areas as far as Ladybrand and Senekal in the Freestate, as well as in the Northern Cape towns like Kakamas and Upington.
Kekkel en Kraai specialises primarily in fresh and frozen chicken products, although there are some stores in certain areas that also supplies processed chicken products. This range of products has also expanded recently and today we also supply products like eggs, sauces and spices that also falls under the Kekkel en Kraai brand name.
