Schoonspruit Distillers

"Totpak purchases its alcohol from local and overseas sources. The demand for the product has grown with leaps and bounds and Totpak is currently servicing 16 000 outlets and has established itself into the lucrative export market.

Its requirements for import of alcohol, specifically whiskey, spawned the idea of becoming self sufficient in this regard. Especially its dependance on the constantly escalating of such imports becoming a factor of concern. Out this concern the idea was born to distill and mature whiskey and brandy through its associated company, Schoonspruit Distillers."
