Revolutionise Your Beauty Routine
Megan Pietersen, founder of Noa&Co
Megan's inspiration for Noa&Co started in Japan, where she lived for a few years with her now retired professional rugby player husband JP Pietersen. During her time there, she became enmeshed in Japan's wellness culture. "Living in Japan and being exposed to Eastern wellness was amazing. They're just so far ahead of us when it comes to self-care, diets, nutrition and longevity," muses Megan.
She started making concoctions at home to give to her husband; blends of proteins that contained probiotics and organic goodness. Eventually, she decided to launch Noa&Co in South Africa. "South African consumers love a premium product. They actually enjoy making things at home. So, the range took off and did well," says Megan.
The brand is all about integrity, from the mindfullycreated, expert-backed formulations to the way they're brought to market. It's also family-focused, with things that kids can consume and enjoy. "I give my proteins to my children, my five- and two-year-old because I know what's in there," says Megan.
