🌱 GreenHill Laboratories | Strategy in Action

Last Friday, fresh off our successful SANAS re-assessment, our Leadership Team gathered at the tranquil Gateside Guesthouse for a full-day strategy workshop—facilitated by the insightful Johnny Black, with support from William Gearing and Jess Baines.

Together, our Managers and Department Team Leaders took a deep dive into our 2026 Vision—assigning targets, actions, and KPIs to drive measurable impact across every department. But more than that, we paused to reflect on our core Concept and Belief as a company: Why we exist, who we serve, and how we show up.

At GreenHill, we believe in clarity, compliance, and client-centric innovation. Our mission is to deliver trusted, accredited services that empower our clients—and our strategy is now supercharged by the Epic platform (https://www.epicit.com/).

💻 From live dashboards and KPI scorecards to risk registers, project tracking, and 360° reviews, Epic equips us with the tools to turn vision into velocity. It’s more than a platform—it’s a strategic partner that helps us stay accountable, agile, and aligned with our purpose.

📊 With Epic, we’re not just setting goals—we’re building a culture of excellence, transparency, and continuous improvement.

Here’s to the next chapter of growth, collaboration, and impact.

🎉 GreenHill Laboratories: Five Years, One Big Milestone 🎉

Just under five years ago, our 7-person team faced our first SANAS assessment in the midst of a global pandemic.

Last week, with a 30-strong team and five years of growth behind us, we welcomed SANAS back for our re-accreditation assessment. Four expert assessors spent three full days reviewing every detail of our management system and technical competencies.

We’re proud to share that GreenHill Laboratories has been recommended for continued SANAS accreditation! ✅

The assessors praised our team’s professionalism, system integrity, and the seamless flow of the assessment. This is a testament to the dedication and excellence of every GreenHill staff member—technical and administrative alike.

Special thanks to:
🌟 Kate Keil, our QA Manager, and Dr Tashiana Beharielal, our Laboratory Manager – for leading our preparation with precision and care
🌟 Mbali Msane, Kiosha Bhikraj, Kiara Bhikraj & Beverley Williams – our brilliant Technical Signatories

This milestone marks more than compliance—it reflects our commitment to quality, collaboration, partnership and sector leadership.

Here’s to the next chapter of growth and impact. 💚

A New Chapter Begins!

We’re excited to share that GreenHill Laboratories Cape has officially rebranded as OmiQU Laboratories — now a fully independent laboratory, ready to chart its own course with clarity, confidence, and scientific excellence.

Congratulations to the OmiQU team on this bold step forward! Independence is a milestone worth celebrating, and we’re proud to see the GreenHill Cape team evolve into a dynamic, standalone brand.

While OmiQU Laboratories now operates independently, the connection between GreenHill and OmiQU remains strong. Our teams share a deep respect for quality, innovation, and client service — and we look forward to continued collaboration, knowledge exchange, and mutual support as both labs grow and thrive.

Here’s to new beginnings, enduring partnerships, and a future full of possibility.

🔬 Brucellosis testing: more than a result—it’s a responsibility.

This Plaas Media AgriOrbit article by Deon Gallus of the Dairy Standard Agency
captures the real-world complexity of brucellosis diagnostics—and it’s a conversation we’re proud to be advancing.

At GreenHill Laboratories, we currently offer SANAS-accredited Milk Ring Testing (MRT)—but we’re not stopping there.
We’re actively engaging with industry representatives to bring more advanced, reliable MRT techniques to South Africa, ensuring our clients benefit from global best practices and evolving diagnostic precision.

✅ What we stand for:
• Technical excellence rooted in compliance and clarity
• Rigorous sample handling and cold chain protocols
• Contextual reporting that empowers informed decisions

⚠️ What we help clients navigate:
• Misleading results due to mastitis, vaccine interference, or poor sampling
• Regulatory complexity and herd-level consequences
• Administrative delays—we’re digitizing to streamline

"Wathint’ abafazi, wathint’ imbokodo"
You strike a woman, you strike a rock.

Today, South Africa celebrates Women's Day.
We honour our wives, mothers, daughters, grandmothers, sisters, aunts, and nieces — the quiet strength and fierce love that hold our society together.

But 69 years ago, women declared their unshakeable stand against oppression.
They marched. They resisted. They stood as rocks against the forces of injustice.

Today, we especially honour the brave women of 1956.
South Africa salutes you.

When farmers, vets, and laboratories collaborate, herds thrive. Early detection means fewer missed breedings and better productivity.

🔍 Trust the Science
These tests detect pregnancy-associated glycoproteins (PAGs) — a highly specific marker produced only when an embryo or foetus is present. Unlike progesterone, PAGs don’t fluctuate, giving you accurate, reliable results.

Support vet recommendations, make informed breeding decisions, and keep your herd on track for peak performance.

It started with a question: “What’s really in the meat we eat?”

At GreenHill Laboratories, that question isn't just academic — it’s our calling. Every day, behind the scenes in our accredited lab, our scientists run meticulous tests on beef, pork, poultry, lamb, and processed imports to protect what matters most: your trust.

One sample at a time, we bring clarity where there was uncertainty. We don’t just test — we affirm quality, reveal truth, and ensure safety.

Our story is rooted in South African soil, but its impact reaches every table, every lunchbox, and every business that depends on integrity in the food chain.

Because when food tells a story, truth should be its main ingredient.
