About Us

Grow one Africa™(GOA) is a service provider within the South African cannabis industry, exemplifying the self-regulatory private club model for non-commercial, responsible adult use of cannabis in accordance with the Cannabis for Private Purposes Act.

Grow one Africa™ (GOA) is at the forefront of South Africa's cannabis industry, pioneering a self-regulatory model that supports the non-commercial, responsible, cultivation, processing, and sharing of cannabis within private social clubs. Our framework, aligned with the Cannabis for Private Purposes Act of 2024, is designed to foster a safe and transparent cannabis culture while adhering to international standards.

At GOA, we believe in the power of cannabis to unite communities and drive sustainable economic growth. Our self-regulating Grow Club Compliance Model enables the establishment and operation of private cannabis social clubs across South Africa, offering full traceability and transparency, while working in with current legislation. These clubs are safe, private spaces where like-minded individuals can exercise their constitutional rights to possess and use cannabis responsibly.

Our mission extends beyond compliance; we are committed to destigmatizing cannabis culture in South Africa. By fostering informed and respectful communities, we demonstrate that it is possible to engage with cannabis in a way that benefits both individuals and communities as a whole. In a country as diverse as South Africa, it is fitting that cannabis—a plant that transcends cultural boundaries—plays a role in bringing us together. At Grow one Africa, we are proud to be leading this change, ensuring that cannabis is treated with the seriousness and respect it deserves.

Meet the Team

What began as a seed of an idea has blossomed into Grow one Africa, a pioneering force in South Africa's cannabis industry. Founded in Oudtshoorn, GOA started with the ambitious dream of creating a network of cannabis social clubs. Despite numerous challenges, their determination and vision led to the opening of the first GOA club, Die Boomhuis, in 2020.GOA functions like a close-knit family, with a core team dedicated to developing, administering, and communicating the GOA model across South Africa.

As our GOA family continues to grow, we are thrilled to welcome new team members who are vital to our ongoing journey. While this core team laid the groundwork, GOA’s success is a collective achievement, thanks to our dedicated staff, club owners, employees, cultivating and processing members, and all our GOA members. Together, we have shaped GOA into what it is today, and we are excited about the future as we work towards a sustainable and thriving South African cannabis culture.
