People and communities
We work to improve the lives of our people as well as the communities surrounding GHB Farms

Community
Supporting our employees
We consider our employees and their families part of the GHB Farms family, and invest accordingly in their wellbeing.

Community Projects
- Building a creche for the local informal settlement
- Buying glasses for all our workers with limited eyesight
- Sponsoring a local orphanage
- Online school project on all our farms – ready for the 2022 school year
- Sponsoring a local primary school

Stationery
As part of our COVID-19 back-to-school support, we provided highlighters, rulers, pens, pencils, stationery boxes, erasers, sharpeners, glue sticks, scissors, examination pads, water bottles, and lunch boxes to local schoolchildren.

Schooling
We operate an on-farm online-school facility equipped with air conditioning, wifi, rubber flooring, tables and chairs, and electrical and USB outlets.

Optometry
We run an annual eye-screening program for our employees. After all, they deserve the chance to enjoy the beauty that surrounds them on our farms and to see clearly the fruits of their labour.

Nutrition
We provide bi-monthly food packages to support the nutrition of our employees and their families.

Uplifting local communities
We have made significant investments in communities through school sponsorships. We co-sponsor a local crèche in the Waaikraal Community, have begun operating an online school on our farm, and have sponsored a local orphanage, and provided reading glasses for our employees with limited or diminished eyesight.
GHB Farms has made a conscious effort, wherever possible, towards the ongoing improvement of the lives of people and communities surrounding our farms. As many of our employees and their families form part of these communities, we are dedicated to providing clean water, renewable energy sources, food, and contribute towards critical needs where these are identified.
GHB Farms has invested in the upliftment of communities of Bossemanskraal, Spitskop, and Rooipoort, in the Bronkhorstspruit area. To date, we have installed water tanks and solar panels to homes in order to improve the quality of life for the residents. This lightens the load of the daily activities and chores for the residents of the communities, enabling them to lead healthier, more productive lives.
As a family business that seeks to leave a positive and meaningful legacy for future generations, we have placed significant focus on improving the lives of the youth within communities. To this end, we have positively contributed towards the safety and development of the youths. We have to date, amongst other initiatives, built a crèche and provided free WiFi access to schools in the area.
As many of the community members are employees at GHB Farms and play a key role in the success of our business, the health and wellbeing of community members remains an area of importance to us. Part of our initiatives is to provide for our communities and maximise efficiency at our farms, and we continue to make regular donations of food to the residents of these communities.
