Bushtec Safari is synonymous with outstanding quality, sheer luxury, innovative design and unsurpassable expertise. As part of the Canvas and Tent group, which has been manufacturing tents since 1968, Bushtec is one of the leading tent manufacturers and suppliers to well-known safari camps and game reserves, hunting and luxury lodges, and resorts within the travel market both locally and internationally.
“We have a team of visionaries, unwilling to compromise on quality, dedicated to innovation and committed to delivering above and beyond – within budget, year-on-year,” says the company’s Marc Van Den Bosch. “The foundation for creating an authentic and unforgettable outdoor experience starts here.”
“We are proud to offer you nearly 50 years of knowledge which sets us apart from our competitors and has established us as the leading tent manufacturer and supplier to military, humanitarian organisations, game reserves, safari destinations, holiday resorts and adventurers, both locally and internationally.”
Bushtec has a state of the art factory situated at the foothills of the Drakensberg Mountains in Ladysmith, South Africa. The company’s initial product offering was the Meru range of tents. “A standard design allowing little room for customisation, we recognised a need for a bigger variety and more options. As a result, our team took risks and began designing tents ahead of their time,” adds Marc. “This inspired us to take part in the yearly Tourism Indaba. Each year we push the boundaries of good design in canvas and create something new, beautiful, functional and trendy.”
What began as a small brand, manufacturing a few luxury canvas tents, is today a respected and trusted brand offering the best of both worlds; a back to nature experience, with all the luxury guests could wish for. For example; en-suite bathrooms, air-conditioned rooms, breath-taking interiors and complete kitchens to ensure the food compliments the scenery from guests’ private tented suite.
The company has recently incorporated decking and infrastructure support such as water treatment, waste water treatment and reticulation, electrical reticulation and back of house services, in order to offer the client a single point of contact and turnkey luxury camps solutions though its partner from the Weatherhaven Africa/Redeployable Camp Systems SA.
As a part of the Canvas and Tent Group – Bushtec is ISO 9001 and 14001 certified. The company also won the Premier Award 2015 Exporter of the Year.
“Our in-house design team can assist in creating your dream and your project will carry the Busthec Safari stamp of approval – being part of nature but on your terms. With recent turnkey camps delivered in Algeria, Botswana, Seychelles and UAE – our products have proved themselves in different environmental conditions,” he adds.
