Bees and Beekeeping

BioHoney

BioHoney specializes in innovative and appropriate skills transfer, production systems, commercialisation and colony multiplication, hardware applications, pollination, integrated disease and pest management, small, medium and large processing and packaging technology, value addition, market access and analysis and business plan development, project design, monitoring and evaluation. We have worked in over 15 countries on four continents including the United States, Germany, Cyprus, Ukraine, Israel, India, Bangladesh, Uganda, Sudan, Kenya, South Africa, Lesotho, Swaziland, Botswana, Angola, Nigeria and Ghana and soon Chad.

Not only do we consult on beekeeping projects around the world in what is generally a very theoretical environment, BioHoney also keeps a migratory commercial apiary of over 600 hives producing over 36 tons of honey per year in South Africa. This allows us to continually keep our practical applications fresh as we assist the world with its apiary needs.

BioBees

Beehives BioBees The 600 bee hives owned and managed by BioAfrica produce about 18 tons of honey per year. This natural quality honey is cold extracted, bottled and sold in 500gr bottles to various supermarkets and health shops as well as by our BioAgents. Our 30 Beekeepers from previously disadvantaged backgrounds (BioBeekeepers) are guided and advised by Steph Hartung. This is a further job creation as the beekeepers are trained and managed by BioAfrica.

Bee Consultation

With over 30 years experience on four continents in the field of beekeeping, BioHoney has proven time and again to be more than the usual generalized consulting firm. Our goal is to maximize production and profit for our clients by using existing indigenous materials, technological innovations and resources.
