March 2018 Meeting
March 1, 2018 @ 8:00 am - 10:30 am
Topic: David vs Goliath: From one drop to one ton!
When Jarrett Pech and his wife Kim gave up their fast-paced city slickers Jozi lifestyle for a quiet rustic back to basics life on a farm in Richmond, they never dreamed it would lead to manufacturing over a ton of Pure Tissue Oil every month for customers around the world.
Jarrett shares with us a brief history behind the B.O.N Natural Oils brand, from taking over a third-generation family business, using his wife as a guinea pig to perfect the best all-natural skincare range, as well as all the highs and lows and lessons learnt along the way.
Guest Speaker: Jarrett Pech
Jarrett grew up in Mpumalanga on a beautiful farm in the eastern Transvaal highlands. He studied at WITS in Johannesburg and worked in JHB for first 10 years of my career as a chartered accountant. In 2002 he decided to leave the corporate world and use my business experience to start his own business.
This involved expanding the family Essential Oils business by establishing a eucalyptus oil operation in Richmond, KZN. Once the eucalyptus oil business was humming along Jarrett and his wife Kim launched the B.O.N brand and set up operations in PMB.
Jarrett feels blessed to have a growing business, 2 beautiful children, and to live I in such a beautiful part of the world.
