Our Story
Quintessence Collections was established in 1995 by Ann Rogers to service the retail, corporate and contract manufacturing markets within the body and skincare industry.
Over the years, Julian Rogers and Hentie van Zyl joined the business, shaping Quintessence Collections into a structured, family-led organisation that remains 100% owner-managed today.
From the outset, our vision was to create a cosmetic manufacturing company built on technical precision, innovation and long-term partnerships. More than three decades later, that foundation continues to guide every aspect of our operations.
We service a wide range of market segments including: Our engagement across multiple channels ensures we remain aligned with evolving product requirements, ingredient innovation, packaging advancements and regulatory expectations.
Our Growth & Facility
As our capabilities and client base expanded, so did our infrastructure.
In 2016, Quintessence Collections expanded its manufacturing facility from 450 square metres to 1,200 square metres, significantly enhancing our production capacity and operational workflow.
This growth enabled us to:
- Improve production flow and workflow segmentation.
- Expand raw material and packaging storage.
- Strengthen quality-controlled manufacturing zones.
- Enhance filling and finishing operations.
- Invest in scalable production infrastructure.
Located in Pretoria, the capital of South Africa, our facility provides a central and accessible location for suppliers and clients alike. All manufacturing takes place on-site, allowing for constant supervision of systems, procedures and quality standards.
Our Approach
