Management Profiles

KP Setati
Executive Chairman, KLM Group

Paul Setati is the original entrepreneur, not satisfied with a professional career that spanned Anglo American, MiTek and GangNail, he decided to venture away from the architectural industry and into business in 1990.

He spotted opportunities for Tiger brands (Albany Bakeries) and Clover to move their products into the townships, specifically Alexandra and Tembisa and convinced them he would ensure that their products and profits were safe.  The business thrived and became the cornerstone for the group of companies that exists today.

The entrepreneurial spirit continued in the mid-90s with forays into the energy sector via Engen Filling Stations, Fast-Food Franchises via Chicken Lickens and many more.

Paul founded KLM Setati Food Services in 2002, after noticing that the catering industry was in need of a reliable service provider with strong credentials. KLM Setati has now firmly established itself as a supplier to schools, hospitals, canteens and kitchens all over South Africa.

Later on, he sought to modernise the business and developed a growth strategy that was pioneered by the bolt-on acquisition of Trojan Food Manufacturers.

Paul is still active in the business. He enjoys hobbies such as jogging, reading and taking up his role as an elder at the church.
