Wiekus Pretorius
Wiekus brings a robust blend of global agribusiness expertise and strong commercial insight to his role as VP Global Agribusiness at Cultura Connect.
Before transitioning into agribusiness consultancy and talent matching, Wiekus built a proven professional track record driving business development within the livestock and dairy technology sectors. His career has seen him working closely with progressive Ag Tech businesses, where he was instrumental in introducing automated systems, precision milking technologies, and data-driven herd management tools to commercial producers. His hands-on approach across these environments helped him establish a comprehensive perspective on market dynamics, capital investment cycles, and operational efficiency on modern dairy units
At Cultura Connect, Wiekus leverages this unique skill set to connect exceptional talent with forward-thinking agricultural businesses. He shares the team's commitment to continuous learning and is deeply passionate about helping individuals and organisations thrive in an ever-evolving agricultural landscape.
Outside the office, Wiekus enjoys making the most of the outdoors, whether it's camping, exploring new places, cycling, or spending time on the water. He values an active lifestyle and enjoys balancing professional commitments with quality time spent with family. Much of his free time is dedicated to supporting his children in their sporting pursuits and creating memorable experiences together through outdoor adventures.
