Who We Serve
Restaurants, hotels, and catering companies across Southern Africa trust Devine Oils with both sides of their oil needs — and here's specifically why it's worth switching.
Restaurants
- ●Kitchens run on tight margins — every litre of used oil you sell back to us is money you'd otherwise pay someone to take away.
- ●Fryer downtime costs you covers. We work around your service hours, not the other way around.
- ●One point of contact for both sides of your oil needs: we collect what's used and can supply fresh sunflower or palm oil in the same relationship.
Hotels
- ●Multiple kitchens, banqueting halls, and room service all generate used oil — we consolidate collection into a single scheduled pickup instead of several ad-hoc arrangements.
- ●Sustainability reporting matters to hotel guests and group ESG targets. We can provide collection volumes and dates for your records.
- ●Bulk fresh oil supply at hotel-scale volumes, with consistent quality across large-batch cooking.
Catering Companies
- ●Event-based businesses have irregular volumes — our Custom Term option means you're not locked into a fixed weekly collection that doesn't match your event calendar.
- ●Mobile and outdoor cooking setups generate oil that's harder to store safely — we collect in sealed, spill-proof containers so it's off your hands quickly.
- ●Cash payment on collection helps cash flow between events, without waiting on invoicing cycles.
Why Kitchens Choose Devine Oils
The used cooking oil industry has plenty of collectors. Here's what we do differently.
Cash paid on collection
Many collectors invoice and pay later, if at all. We agree a price, collect, and pay in cash on the spot — no chasing payment.
Sealed, spill-proof handling
Oil is collected in sealed containers from kitchen to tanker, so there's no mess, no odour, and no liability for your premises.
We keep it out of the food chain
Used cooking oil that isn't properly collected sometimes finds its way back into informal resale — a real food-safety risk in this industry. Every litre we collect is tracked to biodiesel processing, not resold as cooking oil.
Regional reach, not just one city
We collect and supply across South Africa, Botswana, Namibia, and Zimbabwe — useful if you operate more than one branch across the region.
Flexible scheduling
Weekly collection for high-volume kitchens, or a custom term for irregular volumes — set from your customer portal, not a phone call.
One relationship, two services
We collect your used oil and can supply your fresh oil — one account, one contact, less admin for your kitchen manager.
