About Us
Driven by the people who eat our products
Our Story
Hendri Pieterse Boerdery Pty Ltd, was founded as HNPieterse Boerdery by Mr. Hendri Pieterse in 1989, with a farm situated in Krokodilsdrift, Groblersdal in the province of Limpopo, South Africa. Our original commodities were Tobacco, Cotton, Wheat, and Maize. Using our extensive knowledge and experience in farming, our first table grapes were established in 1995 and we branched into citrus production in 2000.
Our business has expanded to encompass five production units offering 350 hectares of table grapes and 500 hectares of citrus.
The cultivars we trial and select are carefully chosen for maximum production in our unique microclimate, demands in consumer preference and trends as well as market timing.
We are a family-owned company who specialises in the growing of fresh, quality table grapes and citrus fruit for export to global markets.
Our Vision
Profitable growth through superior products, valued customer relationships, quality, and commitment in everything we do.

Due to our leadership’s forward thinking and continuity planning we have grown from strength to strength. We have become a respected brand in our industry and an identifiable brand with our customers and end consumers.
As with business sustainability we also value environmental sustainability. Respect for our land, the use of innovative, precision farming techniques, ensure continual improvement and expansion of the products we grow. Our values are entrenched to continue from generation to generation.
Since 2010
HNP Marketing is our exporting division. By branching into the export field, it has allowed us to offer increased value and more control in our supply chain. Operating initially as a grower/exporter we now offer export services to other growers in the area being able to give a greater offering to our valued customers.
