Launched in 2020, Halo was created out of a desire to expand our sister company, Spaza Store. Our team is 98% female and thrives on a core set of beliefs that inspire everything we choose to create and everything we do.
We believe in change, are relentless about improvement and are constantly searching for new ways to improve the lives of young people in South Africa.
According to a new survey conducted by SME South Africa, 47 percent of South Africa’s small and medium enterprises are led by women. By collaborating with existing manufacturers and artists, we hope to drive this narrative forward by creating more opportunities for women to thrive.
]]>Besides being super handy, our dish covers are also flexible and accommodate different sizes, shapes and situations, making them extremely useful.
They’re long-lasting, durable and can be used over and over again for many years.
They’re breathable and eliminate condensation, protecting your food from harmful toxins. They also help contribute to decreasing the amount of waste created by single-use plastics.
Both beautiful and useful, they add flair to any table setting and are a gorgeous addition to minimalistic decor.
Each Halo carries the story of the hands that brought it to reality.
We are firm believers of environmental kindness and this thread runs through everything we create. All our products are packaged in an eco-friendly warehouse, where we make every effort to ensure that we reduce plastic wherever possible.
All of our packaging is made out of paper and sealed with gummed tape instead of plastic tape. In addition, all our fabrics are 100% GOTS-certified organic cotton, ensuring that our customers receive quality products that are also friendly to our planet.

Halo is looking to change this narrative through working with existing cooperatives and manufacturers to help create consistent work for them. By providing training and equipment, we hope to produce a sustainable means of income for communities in critical need of opportunities.
We also collaborate with young artists in order to provide them with remuneration, work experience and industry exposure. We invite young designers to present pitches to us, which we then sift through and select from to turn into our next range.
We work closely with each artist as they develop their artworks, assisting them with any guidance they may need. In this way, young artists are presented with an opportunity to advance their careers by telling their stories, sharing their work with a larger audience and seeing their art presented in a tangible way.
