Our Story

Operating Since
2003.

Firewood 4 Africa has spent over two decades building relationships with farming communities across the Western Cape — bringing quality firewood into Cape Town homes, one delivery at a time.

Community sourced. Our wood comes directly from local farming communities, keeping money in the Western Cape economy.

We give back. A portion of every sale goes to nonprofits and schools. Buying firewood means supporting local education.

Honest product. We only sell what we'd burn ourselves — properly dried, well-split hardwood with no filler or mixed rubbish.

"Been using Firewood 4 Africa for years. The Rooikrans is unbeatable for a braai — turns to a perfect coal and the heat lasts all evening. Fast delivery, always good quality."

"Our pizza oven has never burned so well. The Bluegum gives a beautiful clean burn with almost no ash. Delivered to Camps Bay, no problem. Highly recommend Grant and the team."

"Used their FireSweep service before winter. Honestly didn't realise how much creosote had built up. Friendly guys, thorough job, certificate issued on the day. Will use every year."
