Shangase Brands: The South African Company Behind OhSoBright Shangase Brands is the company behind OhSoBright, a South African detergent and home-care cleaning brand developed to serve local households, independent traders, retail customers, and export markets. Based in Umbogintwini, Durban, Shangase Brands is a Level 2 B-BBEE company that sells, markets, and distributes home and personal care products across South Africa and into Africa. The company was founded by Bongi Shangase, a recognised entrepreneur in KwaZulu-Natal with a strong track record across successful regional businesses. OhSoBright was developed as a unique range of locally manufactured detergent and home-care cleaning products. The brand’s flagship product is OhSoBright Laundry Detergent Paste, a concentrated 3-in-1 formulation designed to help remove stains, brighten laundry, and soften fabrics without the need for a separate fabric conditioner. The Laundry Paste took three years to develop and test before launch. It was created for South African and Southern African washing conditions, where customers need strong cleaning performance, value per wash, and flexibility for both hand washing and machine washing. The concentrated formula helps customers use less product per load while still achieving effective cleaning results. The OhSoBright product range has grown around the Laundry Paste concept. Complementary products include Stain Away Pre-Treater Paste, concentrated dishwashing liquid, Tea Tree cleaning products, Pine Gel, floor and tile cleaners, cleaning sprays, and other household cleaning products. Shangase Brands distributes through a growing network of retail, wholesale, online, and export channels. OhSoBright products have been listed or supplied through major South African retail and online channels including Game, Makro, SPAR, Pick n Pay Family stores, Takealot, and other independent and trade customers. The brand also continues to grow across African export markets. OhSoBright and related home-care products have been supplied into countries including New Zealand, Qatar, Bharain, Namibia, Botswana, Lesotho, Zimbabwe, Malawi, Eswatini, Mauritius, and other regional markets. The OhSoBright online shop was created to give consumers, smaller traders, shop owners, and distributors direct access to the product range. Customers can order online, pay electronically, and receive delivery within South Africa. This supports customers in areas where retail availability is still growing. It also gives traders and smaller businesses a practical way to buy stock directly from the brand. OhSoBright represents a clear South African growth story. It combines local manufacturing, practical product development, strong retail potential, and a range built around real consumer needs. For customers, OhSoBright offers concentrated home-care products that work. For buyers, retailers, and distributors, it offers a differentiated South African brand with a strong flagship product, a complete support range, and proven relevance across household, trade, retail, and export channels. ![](https://www.ohsobright.co.za/images/About_Us/OSB%20Paste%20Group.png) ![](https://www.ohsobright.co.za/images/About_Us/OSB%20Cleaning%20Sprays%20Group.png) ```json { "@context": "http://schema.org", "@graph": [ { "@type": "Article", "author": { "@id": "https://www.ohsobright.co.za/#administrator_c1c8b92cc3" }, "dateModified": "2026-06-28T08:29:56Z", "datePublished": "2020-09-06T10:39:44Z", "description": "OhsoBright Laundry detergents and home cleaning products for retail and wholesale.", "headline": "Shangase Brands - Our company ", "image": { "@id": "https://www.ohsobright.co.za/#defaultLogo" }, "inLanguage": "en-GB", "mainEntityOfPage": { "@type": "WebPage", "url": "https://www.ohsobright.co.za/about-us/our-company" }, "publisher": { "@id": "https://www.ohsobright.co.za/#defaultPublisher" }, "url": "https://www.ohsobright.co.za/about-us/our-company" }, { "@type": "Person", "name": "Administrator", "@id": "https://www.ohsobright.co.za/#administrator_c1c8b92cc3" }, { "@id": "https://www.ohsobright.co.za/#defaultLogo", "@type": "ImageObject", "url": "https://www.ohsobright.co.za/images/Logos/OSB logo 1024.png", "width": 791, "height": 768 }, { "@id": "https://www.ohsobright.co.za/#defaultPublisher", "@type": "Organization", "url": "https://www.ohsobright.co.za/", "logo": { "@id": "https://www.ohsobright.co.za/#defaultLogo" }, "name": "Shangase Brands ", "location": { "@id": "https://www.ohsobright.co.za/#defaultPlace" } }, { "@id": "https://www.ohsobright.co.za/#defaultPlace", "@type": "Place", "address": { "@id": "https://www.ohsobright.co.za/#defaultAddress" }, "openingHoursSpecification": [ { "@type": "OpeningHoursSpecification", "dayOfWeek": [ "monday", "tuesday", "wednesday", "thursday", "friday" ], "opens": "09:00", "closes": "17:00" } ] }, { "@id": "https://www.ohsobright.co.za/#defaultAddress", "@type": "PostalAddress", "addressLocality": "Durban ", "addressRegion": "Kwazulu Natal ", "postalCode": "4126", "streetAddress": "1 Ashgate Rd, Umbogintwini", "addressCountry": "ZA" } ] } ```
