About Us

Years of service to farmers and ground workers

The Early Years

The business started about 30 years ago when my parents moved to East London.  Like many businesses it started by chance.  I found myself driving for a local agricultural contractor – it wasn’t a huge step to go from there to dealing in agricultural equipment.

I developed the business together with my wife and naturally enough the children (all of whom just happen to be boys) spent time with me while I was going about my work.  Not surprisingly, they learnt by watching, whether it was buying or selling, loading or unloading or refurbishing the equipment in the yard.  We moved premises more than once and now have our own yard in Port Elizabeth, Eastern Cape.  It’s called Mega Farm Tractors Yard.

As they’ve grown older and left school, the boys have joined the firm one by one and now all work for the firm

Raymond Van Heerden – Underwriter

Raymond is often found in the office using his extensive knowledge of underwriting tractors and machinery while also selling tractors to his vast collection of contacts over the years. when George isn’t busy in the office underwriting machines, he can often be found out in the lorry delivering and collecting machines.

Peter is in charge of all the day to day running of the yard while leading all the sales and exports. Peter spends the majority of his time on the phone liaising with customer, while meeting customers and advising them on the best machine for the job
