Africa's largest FMCG manufacturer scaling operations across foods, beverages, and home care
Tiger Brands is a major African FMCG manufacturer operating 10,000+ employees across manufacturing, logistics, and supply chain. The tech stack is heavily Oracle + SAP for ERP and supply chain integration, paired with SQL Server and Power BI for analytics — a classic large-scale manufacturing backbone. Active hiring is concentrated in manufacturing (22 roles) and logistics (6), with engineering roles (3) focused on ETL pipelines and ERP integrations rather than product development. The project list (order-to-cash auditing, ERP-supply chain integration, cost optimization) and pain points (food safety compliance, machine downtime, warehouse write-offs) reflect a company optimizing operational maturity rather than digital transformation.
Tiger Brands manufactures and distributes household food, beverage, home care, and personal care brands across South Africa and growing African markets. Founded in 1920, the company operates as a publicly listed entity with a portfolio spanning breakfast cereals, cooking products, beverages, snacks, and home/personal care segments. The operational footprint spans multiple manufacturing plants, warehouses, and distribution networks. The company's core business centers on ensuring consistent supply and quality across thousands of retail touchpoints, from major urban centers to rural villages.
Oracle, SAP, SQL Server, Power BI, and Tableau form the core infrastructure. Azure DevOps and SQL Server Integration Services support integration and data pipeline work. Excel and Office tools remain widely in use across finance and operations.
