Image: @Chasing UlwaziSource: FacebookA young man from Ga Molepo in Limpopo built a yoghurt business out of a simple question he asked himself in his mother's kitchen: could sweet potatoes become yoghurt?
His experimenting in the kitchen eventually led to a fully operating factory in Polokwane where sweet potatoes are processed and bottled with care.
Sweet potatoes as a healthier alternativeThe science behind the product is straightforward.
Sweet potatoes are low in sugar, high in fibre, vitamins and calcium, and carry a neutral flavour that blends easily with other ingredients.
Plans to go national and exportKgarose currently supplies two retail stores in Polokwane and employs four people at his factory.
