Emthanjeni Hydroponics Cooperative (EHC) is perched on commonage land on the outskirts of De Aar en route to Phillipstown, where we produce the very best of cherry, cocktail and plum tomatoes. We supply mainly De Aar based businesses which are linked to us on an 8km well tarred road stretch.
Our exponential growth crystallises itself in us having gained market traction by being able to supply retail giants such as ShopRite Checkers through its fresh produce supplier, FreshMark, and other major grocery outlets and eateries within the Emthanjeni municipal boundary.
The historic town of De Aar – referring to the underground water supply occurring in arteries and also known for its railway junction – serves as our economic hub and niche market. Our cherry tomatoes and other produce complement our world-renowned and delectable “Karoo” lamb.
As owners and beneficiaries of the project; we destined to grow with our tunnels channelling us beyond the town of the junction, De Aar, as we reach the skies with our determination propelling us into the export market through our Global G.A.P accreditation.
