EL VERDANT is an agricultural technology and vertical farming company founded by Mothusi Tau, a Biotechnology graduate from the Vaal University of Technology. The company began in a home garage with a passion for agricultural innovation.
After early experimentation and two prototype systems, the business independently built and tested an automated indoor vertical farm model known as Nano Acres.
In 2023, EL VERDANT secured a 300-square-meter vertical farm at the Westonaria Agri-Park and later received Business Management Training and support from the NYDA. Within the first three months of production, the business successfully commercialised operations and established a stable customer base.
The business is based on its SHEQ and IMS systems that promote ISO compliance.
