Procurement at SA Pecans

Strong farmer relationships are the foundation of our procurement process. We collaborate with growers across the Northern Cape and other pecan-producing regions, ensuring transparent, fair, and consistent supply. Many of our team members are pecan farmers themselves, giving us unique insight into the realities of orchard management and strengthening trust with our partners.

We set strict quality standards to ensure every pecan meets international export requirements. From coordinating harvests to conducting on-farm visits and sampling, we make sure nuts arrive at our Hartswater facility in peak condition, ready for processing and export.

We host Farmer Days, a key platform for market insights, technical talks, and industry networking. It’s an opportunity to connect, share knowledge, and strengthen relationships across the pecan value chain.

By monitoring domestic and international pecan markets, we establish pricing that balances fair returns for farmers with global competitiveness. This approach ensures sustainable farming practices while maintaining a consistent supply for export.

Our team manages the full supply chain from transporting harvests and managing seasonal flows to ensuring storage readiness. Every delivery is backed by rigorous compliance, traceability, and documentation, giving our buyers confidence in quality and reliability.

What sets SA Pecans apart is our generational knowledge and love for farming. With daily hands-on experience in our own orchards, we understand both challenges and opportunities. This enables us to provide advisory services that help farmers run profitable, sustainable operations.
