Simkay Tomato Powder
A relatively novel form of processed tomato — engineered to bypass every major downside of pastes and purees. 100% natural. No additives. No refrigeration.
What Makes It Different
95%+ Nutrient Retention
Our proprietary improved dehydration technique preserves the vast majority of vitamins, minerals, and lycopene found in fresh tomatoes.
Zero Additives
100% natural — no preservatives, no colouring agents, no flavour enhancers. The ingredient list has exactly one item: tomatoes.
No Refrigeration Needed
The powder form is self-preserving. No cold chain, no spoilage risk. Store at room temperature for up to 18 months.
Hygiene-Centred Processing
Our Kaduna facility follows strict hygiene protocols at every stage — from receiving raw tomatoes to sealing finished packaging.
