History

The contest welcomes South African men of all backgrounds. The Mister South Africa brand annually searches the nation for the next deserving titleholder to serve as a positive male role model to younger generations. Through the pageant, the finalists are provided opportunities to further their careers and promote causes.

The first official contestant on Mister South Africa was Shane Ford in 1994. Ford participated in Australia for the Manhunt International pageant.[2]

Contestants have represented South Africa in major men's international beauty pageants, including Manhunt International and Mister World, Mister Supranational and Mister Global.
