On his part, Azania Group Business Development Manager, Joel Laiser said the newly launched Azania PHF flour comes as research to bring a solution, diversity and convenience to its consumers, as most are often too pressed for time to produce quality range of products such as maandazi , chapati and diverse dishes and snacks.
