Services

Helping South African farmers and growers unlock the full potential of their crops through managed African honey bee colonies.

Service coverage

We provide professional pollination services across South Africa, with the exception of the Western Cape. This restriction exists to protect the ecological balance of the region — we work exclusively with African honey bees (Apis mellifera scutellata), which are genetically incompatible with the Cape honey bee (Apis mellifera capensis) subspecies native to the Western Cape. Introducing African bees to that ecosystem could have devastating consequences for the local bee population and biodiversity.

What pollination services involve

Our team delivers managed hives to your farm or orchard at the optimal time in your crop’s flowering cycle. We place and monitor colonies strategically across your land to ensure maximum flower visitation and pollen transfer. Hives are managed throughout the deployment period, with regular inspections to ensure colony health and productivity. We collect the hives after the flowering period and settle them back at our apiaries.

Why it matters

Improved Crop YieldsManaged pollination increases the percentage of flowers that successfully set seed or fruit, directly boosting your harvest volume.

Better Fruit & Nut QualityThorough pollination leads to more uniformly sized, better-shaped, and more nutritious fruit — commanding higher market prices.

Increased Agricultural ProductivityAcross all pollinator-dependent crops — sunflowers, avocados, macadamias, citrus, berries, and more — managed bee colonies can increase yield by 15–30%.

Eco-Responsible PracticeOur African bees are robust, locally adapted pollinators. Using them supports biodiversity and reduces reliance on pesticides.
