Who We Are

Canna-B-Africa was founded in 2022 and secured a hemp permit from the Department of Agriculture, Land Reform and Rural Development (DALRRD) for licensed cultivation.

Hemp is a variety of Cannabis sativa grown for industrial use, with low THC and high levels of fiber, cellulose, lignin, protein, and oil.

We focus on industrializing hemp for sustainable applications like construction bricks, livestock feed, textiles, oils, and biodegradable products — while maintaining full legal compliance.

Our Research Areas

Canna-B-Africa develops hemp-based products for industrial sectors such as construction, livestock nutrition, and environmental sustainability. Research is conducted in collaboration with UJ-HERTS and global partners in Australia, USA, France, and Poland.

Hemp Brick

Hemp Brick

We’re engineering carbon-negative bricks using processed hemp hurd. Designed for use in sustainable construction. currently under lab testing and regulatory certification with UJ-HERTS.

Hemp Animal Feed

Animal Feed

We're developing cattle feed using hempseed by-products. The formulation is under local trial for digestibility, nutrient uptake, and market readiness.

Biodegradable Cup

Environmental Products

We are developing biodegradable hemp-based product and packaging solutions, including fully compostable cups. These products are currently in the prototyping phase.

Biodegradable Cup

Bioremediation & Soil Recovery

We are advancing the use of hemp in environmental restoration through targeted bioremediation and soil testing initiatives. Our research focuses on harnessing hemp’s natural properties to remove contaminants, improve soil health, and support land rehabilitation for sustainable agricultural and industrial use.
