Customer Testimonials

Hi Kelly. I was just at your offices and wanted to thank you for the pleasant experience. Thought it was only the Sunflower seeds as complimentary but was pleasantly surprised that AruguIa and Mixed African Daisy was in the packet, I didn't realize. Thank you for the gifts, I will have to go look up what they look like but am excited now to find out. For me it was a worthwhile trip now especially glad I came to see you, much appreciated. Kind Regards

I am absolutely delighted at your service. I ordered some sprouting seeds on Sunday and received them in Johannesburg on Wednesday morning. Great to see some excellence still around - Mike - 28 September 2022 - Johannesburg

Where to start, just great things! I’ve been ordering the majority of my seeds from them especially the exotic seeds. 
They have a large selection of exotic peppers, dragon fruit, trees, veggies! They are so helpful and they respond promptly on emails!
Thanks for all the great service! Attached is a pic of my peppers, all from Seeds for Africa! - Neil - 23 September 2022 - WC
I am visiting from the U.K. To remind me of my wonderful experience in South Africa, I was determined to go back home with some seeds to plant.
I visited "Seeds for Africa" today. I was initially greeted with a warm welcome, advised of seed availability and guided on planting. The customer service is exemplary. I am returning to the U.K. excited about my purchase. I'd like to thank Michele, Kelly and Adele for their help. I would recommend this establishment to anyone interested in flora and fauna, particularly the indigenous species of South Africa. Thank you.

I would just like to thank you for the great service I have received with my recent/first order. From the get go I have been impressed with your website, the prices, the presentation of the package (neat and I didn’t feel like there was plastic wasted) and the quick service to get the package delivered all the way to Tzaneen. When I received my email with the instructions I was truelly amazed, one can see the heart and soul that goes into your company. I look forward to placing more orders in the future, I don’t have green fingers but I believe the instructions will help a lot! Deoné - 11 August 2022 - Tzaneen

Musina is very hot, dry and not having green fingers makes gardening extra difficult. But thanks to your super seeds I did it!  My gourmet lettuce, tatsoi and gooseberries are coming along nicely. My plum tomatoes are growing nicely and as soon as they start to ripen I'll send you another picture. Even the flowers are gracing us with their beauty. I still have a lot to learn but I know with Seeds for Africa I will master this craft and become queen of my garden! Thank you so much for all your support and info readily available. - Connie - Musina - 2nd August 2022

Once again! I am so so impressed with your service! From shopping cart, to delivery updates, to packing, to fast delivery ( and free samples 😉)!I have received my order in good order!

Keep it up guys - Ilse - Napier 2nd August 2022
Baie baie dankie vir die pakkie met my saad. Alles is perfek, en ek waardeer die ekstras en al die moeite regtig vreeslik baie! Ek is regtig aangenaam verras!
Kan nie wag om die saad te saai nie. Dis met so 'n goeie gesindheid gelewer, dit kan nie anders as om vreeslik mooi te groei nie.
Baie dankie vir uitstekende diens!! - Marina - De Aar - 26 July 2022

I'd like to thank you for wonderful, prompt service and delivery of my seed order and I'd also like to compliment you on your packaging.
I was so impressed with the little "Seeds for Africa" box that my seeds arrived in. - Niki -  Eastern Cape - 28 June 2022 

Just received the parcel. Thank you for spoiling me with the tomato seeds and fertilizer. But especially the tomato. Thank you for the great service and I am looking forward to ordering again next season. Be blessed. - Chantell - Centurion - 7 June 2022

It more than meets my expectations! I am very impressed with the good service I received! Thank you! Have a blessed day further! - Ulna - Benoni - 7 June 2022

I just want to confirm that I have received my order, and in good condition. I also want to appreciate our professionalism and good customer service. You guys are really awesome. Thank you so much. - Sibuniso - May 2022

Thank you very much for your excellent service. I have received my parcel. The courier that brought it to Vosburg explained to one of the residence, as there were quite a few deliveries outstanding from Courier Guy, that all the parcels had been dumped into a corner that were meant for Vosburg and never delivered by the guy doing the delivery. I have no idea if that was the case. I am satisfied that it has been sorted. - Kathleen - Vosburg - 14 May 2022

Thank you so much. I just received the protea seeds for my daughters wedding. And I found some gifted seed packets too!!.......going to enjoy them. Love your service. - Terry - Knysna - 16 May 2022

I have ordered from SFA twice now. The first time I was really impressed with their huge seed selection, and I had a 90% germination rate regardless of using my standard seedling mix for all of the different seed types. On Tuesday I placed my second order with SFA and now on Friday morning my delivery arrived. From CT to PTA so quick. SFA is undoubtedly SA's No. 1 online seed shop. – Chris - 14 May 2022 

 

I am impressed with their customer service that goes beyond one's expectations. From the moment you place an order you are kept in the loop of the order till after it has been delivered. I just queried the fact that some of their seeds had not germinated (and it even could have been my fault) and they immediately gave me a voucher for R500 for my next order. Even that 'free' order has now been delivered with the sam exemplary attention to customer convenience and peace of mind. I am a satisfied customer. – Phillip - April 2022

 

I've been ordering and sowing from Seeds For Africa for a few years now and I can't find enough words to describe how much I love this company. From their efficiency to their amazing catalogue to their brilliant customer service (especially taking note of Grant Muller). There's no issue too big or too small for them. They respond quickly regardless of how small the query is and I always get my consignments on time with no messing around. I also love the "free seeds" they send sometimes. It really engenders a sense of belonging and shows the goodness contained within the company and not just the goodness contained in the seed. None of my seeds have not germinated so they've brought a lot of joy to my heart and my stomach. Thank you, Seeds For Africa, for brightening up my life and feeding my face and my soul. – Nicci G

 

 

Contacted Kelly at Seeds for Africa on Monday re an order I desperately needed by Friday.  It arrived this morning, in Gordon's Bay, while I was still in my pyjamas.  I only paid yesterday.  What amazing service.  I think Seeds for Africa should be given a chance to manage Eskom!  Thanks so much guys, you are awesome. – Moira

 

What an exposure and a good communication with nature, just like a farmer timing for sowing is crucial and a season including making sure that seeds germinate on time. that is how extra ordinary " seeds of africa's " service is. – Thabang

 

Great service from  Seeds for Africa and I'm happy to share how quick they were to respond to my queries. I'm in cape town and received my order within 2 days. Talk about urgency! Even got free seeds. – Ndileke

 

Excellent, speedy service. Received my order the day after placing it. I'm in Gauteng, they're in Western Cape. Not only did I get my ordered seeds but links for each on how best to grow them. Thank you Seeds for Africa. – Lisa

 

I have made several purchases from Seeds for Africa, the latest being bonsai pots. I highly recommend Seeds for Africa. Their service is just excellent. – Ryan B

 

From Cape Town to Soweto without any delays, hassles and the packaging is solid well labeled. Well done! – Siswe

 

Wow! Fastest, greatest service in a long time!!! Placed order last Sunday, Monday was holiday (human rights day). On Thursday I got my parcel! So within 2 and half days i got my order, and a couple of seeds marked free of charge! Most certainly order again! – Gert & Kalla

 

I went there to buy moringa tree seeds and got so much more, just because of the friendly and very helpful staff. They shared information regarding seasonal plants, ground nutrients and some valuable tips on how to care for my seedlings after germination. There is secure parking right in front of the shop. The variety of seeds and ground nutrients is mind blowing and they sell a whole lot of hydroponic equipment, seeds and water nutrients. Seeds for Africa is definitely the place to go if you are into growing from seed or hydroponic equipment. Deliveries all over South Africa. A bonus is the friendly and loving cat at the counter. - Gerhard O

 

I have purchased from them multiple times and not once I have something bad to say about them, excellent quality seeds, timely shipping, no hassles, quick response to queries and always helpful and friendly staff. Keep up the excellent service!!! Thank you. - Werner D

 

Just got my order from seeds for Africa and I couldn't be more excited. The extra details put on the invoice and the little gift shows this company cares about its consumers. - Sohail K

 

Such a great in store experience, i had originally bought from them through a third party, and not again. Great in store assistance and was able to save me some money. Hidden away in newly developed area. Thanks you for sorting out the issue in such a timely manner – Mathew R

 

I rate SFA a 5star as they are really excellent in service delivery... They are reliable and delivery time are with in 73 hours. I recommend them for their good governance and super responsiveness to the needs of their clients. My seeds will be sow beginning Autumn and I see the results next year. Great thanks to the team in the dispatch department especially Kelly and Simon. God Bless every seed stock by SFA. – Daniel D

 

Packaging was very neat and professional. I received a little bag of fertilizer which was very nice. For any communication refer to Kelly. She responds promptly to any queries. I see there's quite a few reviews with complaint to the seed success. I have done the whole seed thing so many times, successfully so I will be reviewing my review after I see what the success rate is with the seeds and the germination etc. – Samantha A
