About Us

Our journey into the culinary world of charcuterie, unchartered territory for an educator, a lawyer and a baker, began in the late Summer of 2025.

One summer morning, while relaxing over coffees on the veranda, our thoughts started percolating into ideas, around starting a joint venture, a mobile charcuterie business.

Many months of further thought, research, road trips (and cups of coffee) later,  ON BOARD Mobile Charcuterie has made its appearance on the local food scene.

What people say

“On Board Charcuterie provided us with a delightful hassle-free evening. Guests are free to mingle with both drink and delicacies in hand. Delicious treats sourced from the West Coast and Swartland were such a treat. The On Board team were friendly, efficient and knowledgeable. All in all, a lovely evening”

Tessa

“I would like to recommend On Board , a cheese and charcuterie board company. On Board are mobile and can come to any office, home or function for stress free entertaining. Their products are carefully chosen and curated from farmers in the regions around Piketberg and they also offer delicious home made relishes. With the boards specially designed for cocktail party functions and a system for efficiency and to freshness, this is stylish entertainment at its best”

Jane Winter

“What a pleasant surprise to see such a fabulous mobile server for the On Board Charcuterie. The wooden art pallets which substituted as food plates were such a unique and fun idea. Each item of food was a taste sensation. We thoroughly enjoyed our meal. Janette and Sue were the perfect hosts and displayed such a degree of professionalism.”
