Lebohang Dhludhlu’s journey into agriculture shows how determination and strategic growth can transform a small idea into a thriving agribusiness. The founder of Nkanyezi Farming in eMalahleni, Mpumalanga, began her poultry business with just 50 chickens and a vision to create a reliable supply of quality poultry products. What started as a modest operation has grown into a business that now supplies more than 300 clients across Mpumalanga and Gauteng. Her customer base includes retail stores, schools, and day care centres that rely on Nkanyezi Farming for consistent deliveries. Dhludhlu’s story reflects the broader potential of women entrepreneurs in agriculture who are building successful enterprises while contributing to food security and local economic development.
