WELCOME TO TWIGA GROUP

We are an innovative company offering a beautiful unique venue, bespoke furniture and furnishings and professional business services. Twiga is a Swahili word meaning Giraffe. We adopted this word as the name for our company with the strapline of "reaching great heights" as we found it inspiring and had always admired the uniqueness and elegance of the Giraffe coupled with its survival abilities; standing heads above all others and reaching heights that others aspire to. It seemed a fitting role model for our company.

Twiga Group is made up of 3 main companies
• Mea Culpa (Our unique venue is available for hire - www.mealculpa.joburg)
• Twiga Cre8 (Bespoke furniture, functional art and furnishings)
• Twiga Business (Professional business services)

Testimonials

Mea Culpa is a lovely hidden gem. A beautiful place indeed!

Mea Culpa is really cool. We loved the garden and Koi pond. Its a beautiful hidden treasure.

This place is simply described as amazing. It was awesome. 

Mea Culpa is such a peaceful unique place. It reminded me of downtown New York, the funky happening palce to be. I love it.

One of the important things Twiga has brought to the role of turnaround management has been the element of an approachable human being. The individual role and function of turnaround are equally as daunting and can put fear in the minds of staff. Twiga has handled the components of the role with compassion and a sense of humour, and in a professional and efficient manner

I think Twiga has tackled the project brilliantly. Starting from nothing and little knowledge to being able to tackle some of the challenging issues yourself rather than just farm them out for others to solve. Twiga’s technical skills shone through I have always found the staff happy to help bubbly and infectious in terms of enthusiasm for end goal.
