Swedish food tech company, Micvac, has revolutionised the ready-meal market. Key to the freshness and quality of Micvac meals are in-pack cooking and pasteurisation as well as Micvac’s patented packaging components: the Micvac tray and the unique Micvac valve. This innovative method for the production of chilled ready meals is currently utilised in almost 20 countries around the world. The South African brand “The Whistling Chef” by Clover was recently added to that list.

The South African Clover company, initially specialised in dairy products, is a leading branded food and beverages group in South Africa and selected African countries. The Whistling Chef range is Clover’s most recent offering for the ready meal market. It includes South African favourites such as Creamy Macaroni & Cheese, Cottage Pie, Creamy Alfredo, Beef Lasagne and Spaghetti Bolognese.

The collaboration between Micvac and Clover make “The Whistling Chef” range the first in South Africa to use Micvac’s innovative ready-meal production and packaging method.
