FEED

Big Five Waters · UMTHOMBO

Good water for our people

UMTHOMBO 500ml: five sparkling flavours and Still, all vitamin- and mineral-infused. The Big Five seal reads WATERS; each flavour tints it in its own colour.

Main logo · plain seal

Logo rules

  • The main Big Five Waters logo is the plain seal, with no bubble ring (as on the /waters hero).
  • Bubble halo only on sparkling flavour designs, in that flavour's tint.
  • Still uses calm wave lines under the seal, never bubbles.
  • Take flavour colours from the swatches below; do not mix one flavour's tint with another's bubbles or waves.

UMTHOMBO word mark

The ™ word mark of Big Five Waters: the name of the Waters range (written UMTHOMBO in running text, in capitals in every language). Bold caps, lightly tracked, with the ™ built into the artwork right after the name, always in the word mark's own colour. Use the colour version by default, a flavour version on that flavour's packs and cards, white on dark and black on light or in print. Do not recolour, stretch or re-set it.

Big Five Foods

Case · School nutrition (NSNP)

2.5 million children a day (plan)

Big Five Foods has landed the National School Nutrition Programme (NSNP) pathway with South Africa’s Department of Basic Education — planned to feed 2.5 million children per day with fortified porridges, soya minces and one-pot meals. That scale is a high-level delivery plan as the programme ramps, not a claim of current daily operational headcount.

Super-Cube®

Case · Super-Cube® FMCG intervention

A 12-week, accredited Super-Cube® leadership intervention with leaders at Imana Foods and Kerry Foods, a South African and an international business in the African fast-moving consumer goods value chain — building whole-person capacity so decisions, ethics and performance improve together.

SupplierAdvisor®

Case · SupplierAdvisor® · DBE × KZN school nutrition

~1,800 providers · ~6,000 schools

KZN schools · one verified network

Big Five Connect runs SupplierAdvisor® so the Department of Basic Education can align school nutrition delivery across KwaZulu-Natal: roughly 1,800 service providers and approximately 6,000 schools on one verified operating fabric — where approved products, menus and compliance incentives live in the same place as trade.

Department of Basic Education

Sets approved products and menus on the platform — one source of truth for what may be bought and served under the programme.

~1,800 service providers

Caterers and suppliers operate against that approved list, with visibility, verification and incentives aligned to DBE requirements.

~6,000 KZN schools

Schools on the network receive and serve from the same approved products and menus — compliance becomes the path of least resistance.

School feeding only works when the plate matches the policy. Connecting DBE authority with the people who buy, cook and serve — at roughly 1,800 providers and 6,000 schools in KZN — turns SupplierAdvisor® into a compliance and nutrition engine, not just a marketplace.
