From Humble Beginnings...

Kobus and Francois’ father, also called Francois bought his farm in the Schoemanskloof Valley in 1966 and it was called Geluk which means luck in Afrikaans.
Originally the farm produced a variety of vegetables and maize with a primary focus on tomatoes. The Joubert brothers
were born and raised on the farm and so naturally became farmers.

Internationally Relevant & Proudly Local

Citrus farming brother duo, Kobus and Francois Joubert have turned their father’s vegetable and maize farm into a large-scale citrus production and packing business. They now export in excess of 9000 tons to the Northern Hemisphere each year.

Our reputation now proceeds us in the citrus industry. We currently cultivate 550 ha of citrus. In 2021, over 11 000 tons of produce was harvested.

We farm a variety of produce which includes Navels and Valencia’s, with a total of 62 ha planted Lemon trees, 252 ha planted Macadamia Nuts as well as 254 ha soft citrus. This totals more than 800 ha under irrigation. We supply local and international markets with our top-grade produce.
