LCS's Background

Livestock Counting Systems was founded by Francois Haasbroek to address his personal need for accurate, real-time livestock counts. He wanted to know the numbers of his cattle at any given time. Together with Philip Opperman they brainstormed on how to achieve the goal, as what this system should be capable of doing.  Philip Opperman played a pivotal role in designing and building the original system and has continued to drive all subsequent developments since the first prototype was tested.

Our Mission:

At Livestock Counting Systems, we are dedicated to creating efficient working environments for livestock farmers by leveraging innovation and advanced technology.  Our ultimate goal is to enhance profitability for livestock farmers through these innovative tools.

Our Vision:

By continuously exploring new technologies and possibilities, Livestock Counting Systems strives to provide solutions to the challenges faced by livestock farmers.

Livestock farmers will, in due time, realize the need for a Livestock Counting System, and after careful consideration, will comprehend what value a Livestock Counting System can add to each and every livestock farming enterprise.

Our vision is to become an indispensable resource for livestock farmers across South Africa and, eventually, worldwide.
