CERES FRUIT JUICES

The rich history of Ceres Fruit Juices is closely associated with the valley after which it is named. With its roots laid down in the creation of Ceres Fruit Growers in 1923, the beginnings of the largest fruit juice company in Africa were set in motion. Since then, our company has grown from strength to strength and has won many prestigious Food and Beverage awards around the world, such as the American Tasting Award of Excellence. As proof of our ongoing quality, Ceres Fruit Juices has been awarded the highly sought after ISO 9001 (International Standards Organisation) accreditation.

The Ceres Fruit Juices story begins way back in 1923 - the year we were first established, under the name Ceres Fruit Growers. Perhaps an apt name - from humble beginnings we've grown into South Africa's leading fruit juice company. We started producing juice for the first time in 1982, with the launch of the Ceres brand in South Africa. In 1986, the LiquiFruit and Fruitree brands were added to the CFJ portfolio.
