Show Notes
For Mokgadi Mabela, founder of Native Nosi, the fear was simple: could she live up to her family legacy? Her grandfather was the first farmer in the family, who used his savings from World War 2 to buy land and start a small beekeeping operation.
As a third-generation beekeeper she had the knowledge she could build a business on, but the modern honey economy is a challenging market. Imported honey, which is often impure, is generally cheaper than locally produced honey, so it was a challenge to turn her legacy into a viable business. Local producers like Mokgadi are offering superior honey and better value.
