Suiderland Plase is a leading producer, packer, distributor and exporter of top-quality citrus fruit and table grapes. We market our fruit globally, conveniently packed and ready to sell. Suiderland Plase's fruit offering is produced and packed across South Africa, with most of our farms and pack houses located in the Western Cape. Suiderland Plase’s roots go back to the late 1940s. Over the years, the company has grown steadily and has maintained a commitment to world-class quality, despite the challenges typical to the agricultural industry. Sustainability is a core part of our business strategy. We actively pursue ways in which we can conduct our business – from growing and processing to distributing our fruit – in a socially responsible, sustainable manner that reduces the impact on the environment. We do this by continuously monitoring and improving farming practices and environmental performance. Suiderland Plase was initially established as a family enterprise and despite our extensive growth, we still believe in the importance of a human touch. While our business priorities are delivering high-quality fruit, we also value our people and communities. To that end, we run various programmes aimed at improving the circumstances, opportunities and outlook of our employees’ families and their communities.
