JW Seeds
Since Johan van der Westhuizen Sr. started producing vegetable seed in 1954 on the Rooirivier farm, we have expanded our business with the addition of several family owned farms. The founder’s sons and two grandsons joined the company with the three sons actively involved in every aspect of seed production.
Over the years, we have evolved as a leading agricultural concern – from a regional market leader to a significant exporter to Europe, America, South East Asia and Africa.
Our location, close to the southern tip of Africa, offers northern hemisphere seed companies counter-season seed production, which extends their crops during any year.
The distinct quality of our seed is well known and our satisfied customers worldwide are proof of the excellent service and products we offer.
With almost 60 years of production experience, our family business is recognized as a valuable partner and supplier in the seed production niche.
The distinct quality of our seed is well known and our satisfied customers worldwide are proof of the excellent service and products we offer. With almost 50 years of production experience, our family business is recognized as a valuable partner and supplier. The bulk of our production is exclusive and supplied on a contractual basis, but we also render a wholesale service.
JW Seeds’ head office is based in a region known as the Klein Karoo, which is renowned for being the principal cropping area for vegetable seeds in Africa.
The micro-climate is ideal for the production of premium vegetable seeds, aside from its popularity as the ‘ostrich capital’ of the world. Through the past 5 years, the production areas expanded to the West Coast, Northern Cape and Eastern Cape as well. These relatively new areas, gave JW Seeds the opportunity to increase their potential throughout the country.
Our total management program encompasses every aspect of seed production and our dedicated team takes pride in the long-standing relationships with suppliers and customers. We welcome visits to the different production areas by traders, who always enjoy the warm hospitality that South Africa offers.
