Company Overview: The seeds of inspiration for a recycled seeded paper business were planted in 2009 when founder Roxanne Schumann was at a wedding and started thinking about all the lovely stationery from the event going to waste. Roxanne teamed up with school friend Nileta Knoetzen, bought some second-hand paper-making equipment and set to work. Working from the family farm at the foot of the Paardeberg, Roxanne and Nileta’s initial aim was to create a sustainable product that would contribute to upcycling culture and bring a little beauty into the world. Little did they know that Growing Paper would grow into a source of permanent employment for more than 30 individuals and provide paid upskilling opportunities for countless more. Officially founding Growing Paper in 2010, Roxanne and Nileta started creating beautiful greeting cards and gift tags by recycling post-consumer waste paper, and embedding it with seeds so that it could be planted to grow into flowers, herbs or vegetables. Over the next couple of years, the knit Growing Paper family grew to include Franza Louw, who is in charge of administration and Christel Wessels who drive creative development. They are supported by a hardworking team of permanently employed men and women from the local community who create bespoke recycled paper products for various commercial and artistic applications. The Growing Paper range has also grown to include everything from wedding invitations to business cards, bookmarks to notebooks, corporate gifts and much more!
