Khulanathi Global is delighted to share that we have formed a collaboration with SmartAgrivate, a company delivering value for the citrus agricultural value chain towards prosperous and peaceful communities. Sustainable inclusive economic growth focused on promoting human development, reduction of poverty, promoting social inclusivity, whilst protecting the natural environment is a prerequisite for sustainable social economic development and improved welfare. SmartAgrivate is focused on promoting the welfare of all those affected by agricultural activity. Achieved through enhancing and advancing the agricultural workforce and human resources operations in a socially desirable manner for the citrus industry.
Global consumer trends towards healthier lifestyles, bourgeoning middle class, increased disposable incomes; improvements in technology, reduction in the cost of transport and communication, and more people moving into the cities from rural areas have increased demand for traceability and ethically produced fresh produce. Consumers are demanding and willing to pay more for demonstrated ethically sourced agricultural produce. SmartAgrivate aims to support the primary producers to better respond to these consumer demands through a combination of human resource development and the application of cloud-based billing and management
Mr. Mntwini recognized the need for a solution that addresses the increasing demand for demonstrated traceability achieved through complex documentation processes, statutory compliance, and strategic marketing requirements for the agricultural sector. He developed a technology that streamlines the management of these requirements whilst improving the relationship between employers and employees. This is achieved in part by providing a common understanding of compliance and market expectations.
This technology aims to minimize grievances and strengthen the collaboration between employers and employees in the agricultural sector. Initially, Mr. Mntwini developed this technology for personal use within his own company. However, he recognized the potential for it to benefit other farmers and role players in the agricultural industry, not just those in the citrus sector. In his generosity and selflessness, he has made the technology widely available to all farm workers in the agricultural sector, to assist them in managing compliance requirements and improving the employer-employee relationship.

The founder, Mr. Mntwini sees an opportunity for developing peaceful and prosperous communities through education and skills development. Augmenting further growth by introducing it into agriculture competent and high-performing employees to support growth and trends. Farmworkers in return can progress in their careers and avoid stagnation, leading to personal growth and a more dynamic agricultural sector.
This technology is thoughtfully designed to meet the unique needs of the citrus industry and the broader agricultural sector. SmartAgrivate (Pty) Ltd. offers dependable and efficient developmental services, utilizing their expertise, service, and technology.
