Fabulous Free-from Food After 20 years in a corporate environment Christine van Niekerk needed a change. Then two years ago she met Danelle van Rooyen – a Christina Martin Culinary Art School graduate with 10 years’ experience in the food industry – who helped her cope with a specialised diet based on food allergies. Christine realised there was a gap in the market for ready-made, allergy-free food that is both delicious and healthy. “At FreeFromFood, Danelle curates our meals and treats to cater for food allergies and varied dietary requirements, creating healthy dishes the whole family can enjoy. Based on my years of experience in managing brands and businesses, I am bringing in these skills to get our new venture off the ground,” says Christine. “In doing so, I ultimately hope to help others who are struggling to provide nutritious free-from meals and treats like I did.” Christine is excited about
taking all the worry of researching, planning and preparing meals away from you. “Danelle and I have fun in the kitchen creating, testing and cooking great quality food, without compromising on our no dairy, gluten and egg policy – and any other food allergy you can throw at us,” says Christine. “This provides you with a wide variety of new dishes and flavours that are based on seasonality and food trends.” There is a fabulous vegan selection, but also delicious meaty dishes. “Our vegetables are locally sourced and organic, where possible. Our meat is free-range and free from added antibiotics and hormones,” says Christine. “Our dream is to ease the burden of many busy professionals and parents by making our free-from food products easily accessible in major retailers and health stores,” concluded Christine.

Pam Golding Properties has been entrenched in the uMhlanga Village for more than 20 years and has established itself as a market leader in the area. But it was time for a change, and Gareth Bailey and Carol Reynolds, Area Principals of Pam Golding North Durban, welcomed the move to a prime position in Lighthouse Quarter opposite Mary & Joe. “This high profile position is ideal for our office, because not only are we active in the traditional residential market, but we are also involved in numerous developments, and a corner shop like this, with excellent visibility, is ideal for showcasing new projects as they launch,” says Carol. Gareth adds: “We are now in the fortunate position of being the only real estate brand on the high retail side of Chartwell Drive, which gives our sellers a great advantage in terms of the exposure they receive when they market their properties with us.” Both Gareth and Carol come from property pedigree with families who have been in the real estate industry for decades. After meeting, their partnership has worked out well, with Pam Golding North Durban being awarded the Top National Franchise in the Pam Golding Group for the past three consecutive years. They have also won the top marketing office across the group, as well as top office for both sales value and sales volume. In addition, Gareth has received the Pam Golding Leadership Award, while Carol has received the same award three times during her tenure with the brand.
