About the VKB Group

At the VKB Group, food still begins with a handshake.

Every part of our agricultural business, from the local co-op to our national FMCG brands, exists to back the people who help feed South Africa. With deep roots in agriculture, we’ve spent more than a century working alongside producers, building not just businesses but legacies that last beyond the season.

Today, that legacy continues across our national footprint through VKB, GWK, and NTK: a connected system of support, processing, logistics, and market access that runs from the farm gate to the family table.

And we do it all for one reason:

For the Love of the Land.
