GERRIT DOS SANTOS

Meet the founder and visionary behind Noorsveld Chicken. His passion for both people and his birds is at the heart of our operation. From early mornings to late evenings, Gerrit tirelessly supports all our Noorsveld farmers, ensuring everything runs smoothly. 

WHEN YOU LOVE WHAT YOU DO, IT IS NOT A JOB, IT IS A JOY.

OUR STORY

Twenty-eight years ago, with 300 birds and his trusted partner George by his side, Gerrit Dos Santos embarked on a journey that would see his dreams come to life. Gerrit never anticipated the incredible story that would unfold, one where the local community would be uplifted and lives transformed.

As Noorsveld Chicken grew, so did Gerrit’s passion for farming and the positive impact it could have.

In 2015, recognizing that he couldn’t achieve this vision alone, Gerrit hand-picked a team of dedicated farmers to join Noorsveld Chicken. This collaboration enabled the business to expand into free-range chicken farming, allowing the birds to mature naturally in a stress-free environment. The farmers, who share Gerrit’s passion, play a crucial role in this process.

Looking to the future, Gerrit is fortunate to have his daughter and son, both of whom share his enthusiasm for the business. He takes great joy in exploring new ideas from the next generation and has full confidence that they will elevate Noorsveld Chicken to new heights as they work alongside him.
