About Us
We are a family run business with a combined 60 years of experience in the textile manufacturing industry, specialising in the agriculture industry. This experience gives our team the knowledge and expertise required to manufacture and source only the highest quality products. We view agriculture as being the backbone of Zimbabwe’s economy and so it’s with this in mind that we strive to support the industry’s growth by offering quality and affordable solutions to the industry.
Given the time sensitive nature of the agricultural industry, your success depends on being first to market with high quality goods. That is why at Webtex, our focus is on helping you meet your requirements and objectives. Our commitment to customer service goes well beyond mere supply, it is a core principle which drives our team to always look for new ideas that lead to better solutions.
