Profile

Marie Sharp’s Habanero Pepper Sauces is the favourite hot sauce in more than 31 countries. Now available in Africa, you can find the range in many delis, Spar’s and Pick n Pay stores throughout South Africa and Namibia. Made from farm-fresh legendary Belizean grown habanero pepper, with a strong emphasis on farm to table goodness. Hand-harvested and ripened under the Belizean sun, manufactured from organic farm-fresh fruits, vegetables and spices. All our sauces are 100% plant-based, with no preservatives or artificial flavouring, ensuring the freshest bouquet of fruit and vegetable flavours. Marie Sharp’s uses carrots as the base for all her sauces and this provides an excellent balance for the heat of the habaneros creating a natural sweetness to carry the burn. No oils, thickeners or sugar are added, making the products calorie free and safe for banting, keto and diabetic diets. Marie supports female employment in Belize and her factory is made up of 90% female employees. This ethos ties in nicely with South African businesswoman Lauren Michelle Weaver, who is increasing the label’s footprint locally and in the rest of Africa.
