Our mission is the growth and revitalisation of agriculture in our region. We must meet all the requirements of our stakeholders and farmers, many of whom need to increase their production and so develop into self-sufficient, sustainable farmers. As our farmers develop, they will in turn employ many thousands of previously unemployed people. Providing a regular income to people who are now in a position of hopelessness and dependency will impact fundamentally on our regional economy.

Umtiza Farmers' Corp is based in the Eastern Cape, South Africa's poorest province. Poverty runs deepest in the province's former homeland areas, the Ciskei and Transkei, where developing sustainable agriculture is widely regarded as holding the best hope of stimulating growth and alleviating poverty.

The Co-op is a leading agricultural business in Africa providing products & services to all farming disciplines.
