SPAR and MasterChef came together to help the business owners to get their business, Die Kombuis/ The Kitchen started. 

"My Make My Monday request is for my sister-in-law and myself. We want to start a home-cooked meal service. There is a great demand for it as well as frozen meals. We also do pickled goods. My sister-in-law Didi is a chef and makes the most delicious food. We have been talking for a long time about starting our own business but never have," Nickey Jooste wrote.

"I lost my job in February and think now is the right time, especially since my sister-in-law also lost her job. All we need is a boost to buy the first month's stock. In time we will get all the other things we are going to need," Jooste continued. 

Compliments of SPAR:

• An R5000 SPAR voucher to get your business going with some supplies
• SPAR is currently running a promotion where you can save up to 75% on MasterChef aluminium cookware, by collecting stickers for every R100 spent. 
• SPAR is also giving you a set of MasterChef pots and pans to the value of R8000!
