Women’s Month 2025: Celebrating Our Tiger Women - Meet Nolwazi Khuluse

At Tiger Brands, Women’s Month is a celebration of courage, growth, and the everyday brilliance of the women who shape our business. Through the Tiger Women’s Network, we honour those who rise through challenge, lead with authenticity, and inspire transformation – not just in their roles, but across our culture.

 

Nolwazi Khuluse’s journey is a testament to bold decisions and fearless growth. Joining Tiger just nine months ago, she stepped into the role of Senior Brand Manager for Jungle with a clear purpose: to build iconic brands and stretch herself professionally. Her story is one of leaning into fear, embracing opportunity, and discovering that the greatest growth often comes from the moments that scare us most.

 

🔶MEET NOLWAZI KHULUSE

Senior Brand Manager – Breakfast Jungle

 

My Tiger Journey

“I joined Tiger Brands to further develop and enhance my skill set as a brand builder. The company’s portfolio of iconic, heritage-rich brands that have stood the test of time really resonated with me, and I was eager to contribute to their continued success. The growth I’ve experienced since joining has been invaluable; shaped by meaningful challenges, rewarding experiences, and the freedom to succeed.”

 

What ‘Bounce Forward and Rise Stronger’ Means to Me

“It’s about removing the stigma around failure. Bouncing forward acknowledges that even in the fall, there’s space for learning and with those lessons, the opportunity to grow and rise stronger.”

 

Proudest Achievement

“Learning to lean into fear. In the past, I’ve missed opportunities while waiting for the ‘right moment’ or questioning whether I was ready. Embracing the courage to step forward — even in uncertainty — has opened the door to some of my greatest opportunities.”

 

Inspired By…

“I was raised in an all-female household led by my grandmother, where I witnessed three strong women pursue their goals with unwavering determination. They remain my greatest source of inspiration.”

 

Words of Wisdom

“Go for it — even if it scares you, do it anyway.” ❤️
