Martin Engelbrecht, the driving force behind Kwalivoere just outside Rustenburg, has relied on Jones’ Pellet Machines for the past 12 years to successfully manage his feed production business. These machines have had an undeniable impact on his enterprise, consistently proving their value in a highly competitive market.
Kwalivoere manufactures a wide range of feeds, including lucerne pellets, game pellets, and even specific chicken feed, which are supplied to feed stores for further distribution. To deliver this diversity of products sustainably and efficiently, having the right equipment is essential—and for Engelbrecht, that equipment is Jones’ Pellet Machines.
The Beginning of a Successful Partnership
Twelve years ago, Engelbrecht entered the feed production industry with modest beginnings. He purchased a small 200mm pellet machine from Jones to produce feed for his sheep. The quality of the products he was able to deliver led him to start selling his feed to others. As his customer base expanded, he adjusted and upgraded his machinery to meet the increased demand. He upgraded to the larger 300mm pellet machine and added additional equipment such as mixers and a cooler, significantly expanding the capacity of his facility.
Jones Feed Processing Machines: Reliable and Efficient
One of the biggest challenges in feed manufacturing is processing roughage, such as lucerne and grass, which make up 90% of Kwalivoere’s mixes. Jones’ machines handle these materials effortlessly, making them indispensable in Engelbrecht’s production process. Other machines might struggle to deliver the same level of efficiency, especially with such high levels of roughage, but Jones’ equipment has proven it can meet the demands of this specific type of feed production.
Minimal Issues, Maximum Productivity
Over the years, Engelbrecht has experienced minimal issues with his Jones machines. As with any machinery, certain components inevitably need replacement over time. This can be a significant challenge since any downtime in machinery brings the entire production process to a halt. In such scenarios, the availability of parts and quick customer service is crucial. Engelbrecht testifies to Jones’ exceptional service; every time a problem has arisen, it has been resolved quickly and effectively, with parts always available when needed.
The Road Ahead with Jones Pellet Machines
Engelbrecht plans to optimize his production line further and increase his output. He is confident that Jones’ Pellet Machines are the key to achieving these goals, as they have already proven to be reliable and efficient for him. The support he has received over the years has convinced him that Jones’ Pellet Machines remain the best choice for his business.
In the dynamic and demanding world of feed production, the right equipment is vital for running a successful business. Martin Engelbrecht’s experience with Jones’ Pellet Machines is a testament to how these machines not only improve the production process but also contribute significantly to the sustainable growth of his business. Jones’ Pellet Machines remains a reliable partner at the heart of Kwalivoere’s feed production.
