Tlhoks Vegis, a family crop farming business based in Kuruman in the Northern Cape, grows and processes vegetables. Founded by Letlhogonolo Leserwane, the company started in 2016 as an informal business, operating from home as a backyard garden.
Over the years, while growing various vegetables and fruits to be consumed at home, a passion to plant food developed naturally. It provided therapeutic healing that later created a business opportunity.
In 2022 Tlhoks Vegis managed to create a viable and consistent business model to maintain profitable production. Today we specialize in growing, processing and selling of chilli sauce, with Sambok hot sauce our leading product.
