Rediscover what matters

Agricultural inputs
In all expansion and optimisation initiatives Hinterland core focus is the farmer and his/her requirements. We acknowledge our responsibility to also serve the community that relates to agriculture and/or resides in the less urbanised areas of our footprint. Our slogan, “Rediscover what matters”, underlines that we strive to assist farmers in making better decisions on the critical components of their business, to optimise the farming operation and sustainable profitability.
Non-inputs
Aside from offering most farming requisites and items that are also used by handymen, smallholder farmers, animal and pet caretakers, gardeners, outdoor lovers and campers, hunting enthusiasts, we also operate a fuel filling station at almost all of the 59 branches.

Gathering and analysing data through systems that enlightens our customers when transacting with us is an on-going exercise and a special team which focuses on continuous improvement, is well-established. We engage with farmers, who operate in a fast-changing environment constantly influenced to a huge extent by external factors, to understand their requirements and to provide information that will assist them in making better farming decisions.
