History

The company's roots can be traced to 1939 when Elizabeth Ann Greyvensteyn, known as "Ouma Nannie", turned a family rusk recipe sold at church fetes, to a business making the rusks on a commercial scale for sale in Johannesburg.[2][3]: 33  They obtained a loan of R3,000 from the Industrial Development Corporation in 1940 to expand their business.[3]: 33  Andre Greyvensteyn, her son, joined the business in March 1945 when he left his job in Johannesburg.[3]: 33  The rusks were originally sold as Uitspan and Outspan Rusks but were later renamed as Ouma Rusks.[2] In the 1970s, the rusk part of the business was sold to Fedfood which later sold the business to other companies.[2]

In 1955, after a tour of America, Andre Greyvensteyn started the chip business and would become the chairperson of Simba in 1960 on the death of his father.[3]: 35
