Conza's Biscuits, a Soweto-based family business, has blossomed from a mother's determination to provide for her daughters into a thriving enterprise on the cusp of becoming a household name. Founded in 2004 by Constance Chauke, the journey began as a means of survival when her daughter, Rhandzu, was unable to pursue higher education due to financial constraints.
Armed with her baking skills and a mere R150, Constance started small, selling biscuits to neighbors and local caterers. Her dedication led her to become a familiar face outside Chris Hani Baragwanath Hospital, where her delicious treats sold out daily. Through her hard work, Rhandzu was able to obtain a diploma in media production.
In 2015, Rhandzu joined her mother's business full-time, recognizing its potential for growth. Her sister, Rhulani, followed suit in 2019, bringing her corporate experience to the table. Together, they formalized the business and propelled it forward.
Today, Conza's Biscuits supplies a variety of biscuits to over 30 retail outlets and independent resellers across Gauteng. Their success has earned them recognition, including the prestigious 702 MTN Small Business Award in 2024.
While Constance has taken a step back, relocating to Limpopo, her wisdom and guidance remain integral to the business. Her daughters, inspired by her entrepreneurial spirit, are determined to make Conza's Biscuits a global brand. As Rhulani proudly states, "Her wisdom is what drives the business behind the scenes."
