What Keepa does

One network for South African beekeeping.

Six things, on one shared map of the country.

Registration and leases

Your details go into the beekeeper database, so we can help with official registration and with lease extensions when they come due.

Find beekeepers

A national block map showing where keepers operate, so farmers who need pollination can find you and you can find open ground.

Contracts

Pollination bookings from growers, and honey requests from buyers and refineries. Work comes to you instead of the other way round.

Disease tracking

Log colony health with your consent and watch disease pressure at block level, so an outbreak nearby is a warning rather than a surprise. Reports are anonymised and never tied to a keeper's name.

Theft watch

Hive theft is the single biggest loss for South African keepers. One report warns every keeper nearby, fast.

Harvest expectations

What an area typically yields, so you can plan a season and price a batch against something better than a guess.

The full network

Everything lives at keepa.co.za

Keepa works in any phone browser today. Registration, the block map, the commercial hub, mentorship, the knowledge base and theft watch are all on the full site, with native apps for iPhone and Android on the way.
