Eskort launches Kiddos: SA’s first pork range made just for kids

South Africa’s leading producer of antibiotic-free pork has introduced something new for families: Eskort Kiddos, the first local pork range created specifically for children aged 3 to 13. Designed for busy households and curious young eaters, the range turns mealtimes into moments of fun, flavour and convenience.

A first for South African families

Eskort Kiddos brings together gentle flavours, softer textures and playful shapes to suit younger palates. The range includes six products with cheeky names: Flingas, Tootsies, Smashies, Wim Wams, Tonkies, and Cheesy Wiggles. Each one aims to make everyday eating easier for parents and more exciting for children.

“There’s never been a dedicated pork range made just for kids in South Africa, and that felt like a missed opportunity,” says Arnold Prinsloo, CEO of Eskort. “With Eskort Kiddos, we wanted to create something that makes children smile and makes parents feel good.”

Made for kids, trusted by parents

Every product in the Kiddos range is produced using antibiotic-free pork. There’s no added MSG, and several items are gluten-free. All products are designed for quick, simple preparation, with most ready in under 15 minutes in an oven or air fryer.

“We know parents want convenience without compromising on nutrition,” says Prinsloo. “Kiddos products are packed with protein, easy to prepare and fit into real family life, whether it’s lunchboxes, quick dinners or after-school hunger.”

A market first for pork lovers

While chicken and beef products for children are common, pork tailored to younger eaters didn’t exist until now. Eskort Kiddos fills this gap with food that is fun, nutritious and made for busy families.

The packaging is bright, colourful and full of playful characters, making the range appealing from the moment it lands in the trolley.
