From Vision to Factory Floor: The Restiq Sleep Journey

At Restiq Sleep, we believe quality rest is the foundation of productivity, recovery, and a better life.

Recently, our founder Pritchard Sibanda joined Power 98.7 to discuss the journey of building a proudly South African mattress manufacturing brand from the ground up

Why Restiq Sleep Was Created

Restiq Sleep was built from experience, resilience, and the belief that South Africans deserve locally made sleep products designed with care.

After years in business and learning through multiple ventures, Pritchard entered the mattress industry in 2023. What began as curiosity soon became passion. He realised that mattresses are not just products — they directly impact people’s health, mood, and daily performance.

Sleep Is a Science

At Restiq Sleep, we don’t believe in selling the most expensive mattress.

We believe in helping every customer find the right mattress.

Different body types, sleep positions, comfort preferences, and wellness needs require different solutions. That is why our team focuses on understanding the customer first.

Whether it’s:

• Pocket spring comfort support
• High-density foam durability
• Softer sleep surfaces
• Firmer orthopedic feel

We help match people to what suits them best.

Proudly Manufacturing in Gauteng

Restiq Sleep operates from Johannesburg(KyaSands, Travellyn Business Park unit 75) and continues to grow its manufacturing footprint.

From online beginnings to now welcoming customers into our own factory space, the journey reflects what is possible when ambition meets consistency.

Building Through Challenges

Manufacturing in South Africa comes with real challenges:

• Rising raw material costs
• Electricity disruptions
• Generator fuel expenses
• Infrastructure setbacks

But despite these pressures, Restiq Sleep remains committed to maintaining quality while keeping products accessible.

The Future of Restiq Sleep

We are focused on:

• Expanding into hotels and commercial spaces
• Achieving certifications and quality standards
• Continuing innovation in sleep technology
• Growing a trusted South African sleep brand

This is only the beginning.
