About Rainbow: Rainbow was founded by Stanley Methven on his Father’s farm in 1960. He first sold from a stall in central Durban and the demand for Rainbow’s chicken grew quickly, leading to the commissioning of the first processing plant in Hammarsdale in 1963. Today, Rainbow is one of South Africa’s largest Chicken Producers.
