    With these hand-harvested special African gifts, we invite you to experience this love story we have with Salt. Our salts will undoubtedly become an exquisite addition to your pantry and elevate your meals and drinks!

    About the Founders

    About the Founders

    N/UM founders, Chef Kudzai and Awa’s fortuitous meeting in Zurich many years ago, not only sparked a great friendship, but unearthed a deeply shared passion for Africa and her story in both of them. The simple idea to revolutionize African’s image thru its gastronomy was born and so began a powerful adventure.

    After two years of tedious research, and extensive flavor lab work, we are extremely proud to now share with you, N/UM, a vessel through which Africa can tell its story…in
    a flavorful way!
