“Italy is love and we want to share it with our fellow people of South Africa”
— Busi Gumede & Busisiwe Sumaza
At Premio Holdings we love how people in Italy enjoy life
Food, fashion, travels - everything in Italy is warm and welcoming.
We think the Italian attitude mirrors the spirit of South African people and, together, we can create something new and exciting.

Our mission is to design, to market and to manage profitable Companies in South Africa - based on the pillars of Italian lifestyle and creating a positive impact on the local communities
Our Business Focus
Food
For the Italian people and South African alike food means community. It is the same willingness to share a simple and tasty meal with your family, friends and people from all ages and walks of life.
Fashion
We found excellent manufacturers and designers in Milan, Florence and Rome. Colors, designs, fabrics and textures that will be totally at home in Johannesburg, Durban or Cape Town.
Travel
Italy is a Country full of small and subtle wonders. Beautiful cities, lakes and mountains. That’s the place to go to enjoy a dream-like travel, for a very special wedding or just to take a break.
At Premio Holdings, we stand for our values
We faced highs and lows like everyone, but ultimately, we were blessed getting our fair share of successes in life and in business.
Premio Holdings is the way we are trying to make business giving back to our communities.
Women Entrepreneurship
Premio is led by two South African business women, Busi Gumede and Busisiwe Sumaza, that fell in love with Italy and discovered that Italian and South African people are both blessed by a common welcoming attitude.
Busi Gumede is the founder and CEO of Goodlife Foods (Pty) Ltd and from the Company headquarters in Durban travels all around the world, while Busisiwe, marketing consultant, is now married to an Italian and has been living in Italy a few years.
Empowering Communities
The goal of each business venture is to bring joy to people in their communities. This involvement will be carried through a series of activities studied with local stakeholders.
By design, the main focus is the youth and female empowerment, by sponsorships of local teams or events, courses and training related to the actual business and industry of the Company.

Our Projects
