Capstone Seeds South Africa

Capstone Seeds S.A. handles an extensive range of seed from pasture and forage seed to hybrid maize and sunflower seed – these seeds are adapted to a wide range of conditions. Capstone also handles varieties that have been bred by Agricultural Research Council (ARC), Nelson Genetics’ Dr Sydney Nelson, and others. The Company processes a wide range of seed for agricultural purposes, sourced from registered growers countrywide. Seed, produced in Africa, North and South America, Australia and New Zealand, is imported and exported to over 30 countries worldwide.

Each consignment of seed received at our factory is processed and tested internally in our in-house laboratory, as well as externally to ensure the seed complies with the buyer / importing countries requirements. The seed is then packaged and distributed.

The sales and administration offices of Capstone Seeds S.A. are strategically situated 120kms, or 55 miles, from the bustling port of Durban in Howick, a town in the KwaZulu-Natal Midlands, adjacent to the N3, a major arterial route to Johannesburg and the interior. The Capstone Seeds S.A. main factory is in Harrismith on the same N3 route but more conveniently situated for the producers and growers of the South African market. Capstone Seeds S.A. has a Research and Development office in Potchefstroom and has recently purchased a new warehouse located in Mooi River in the KwaZulu-Natal Midlands.
