In the Zulu language, Qina means "Be strong."

True strength is stable and calm, with a firm gaze and swift movement. It knows what it wants because it knows what it is: action.

Qina was born from a deep bond, born 25 years ago, when Marcella Manghi first discovered South Africa in 1999. An encounter that captivated her with its majestic landscapes, vibrant cultures, and the unique flavors of an authentic and wild land. Drawn by the wild power of South Africa, she began returning more and more often, captivated by the primordial beauty of its landscapes and the depth of its culture. Each trip ignited the desire to bring a fragment of that unique world home.

Thus Qina was born, with the mission of bringing the authenticity of one of South Africa's iconic products to Italy: biltong. Since 2024, Qina has brought the true essence of South Africa to Italy: an intense experience that combines tradition, passion, and unparalleled flavor. A practical and exotic snack, perfect for those who thrive on energy and seek flavors that evoke distant lands. Your new wild habit, in everyday life.
