OUR STORY
Passionate about our products
"We are proud to call ourselves Canadian and love the life that we have created in British Columbia, but we were born and bred in Southern Africa and will always be passionate about our roots.
We are also passionate about sharing some of the best bits from our upbringing with our family and friends who now live abroad.

Veldskoene for a pair of
waterproof Timberlands, but
we're still passionate
about our roots"
LIFESTYLE EATING MADE EASY
Who we are drives what we do
Born out of a mutual passion for food…(and a touch of nostalgia), we formed a small company to support a growing trend of eating “real”, “clean label” foods. We’re excited to launch our own range of traditional cured dried meats. Using 100% Canadian Beef and 100% South African recipes we are combining the best of both worlds to provide premium high protein products for all to enjoy. It's Lifestyle eating made easy. It's a Breese.
​
Our Biltong story started 400 years ago when Dutch settlers landed in the Cape of Good Hope (now Cape Town), and needed a way to cure and store meat for later consumption. Pronounced “Bil” “Tong” which is derived from “Rump” “Strip”, as it is made from a strip of rump meat (in this case beef), Biltong became a popular way of curing, storing and enjoying meat. Today it is enjoyed by millions in
Southern Africa and all over the world.
