1990s
In 1991, a crèche with trained personnel opened on the farm, caring for 30 children daily. The next year a worker committee was elected to represent the workers in negotiations with management.
In 1993, four of Bronaar’s previously disadvantaged managers bought their own houses in the local town. The following year, a clinic with a qualified nurse was established at Bronaar.
In 1997, Bronaar received the NPI (National Productivity Institute) trophy for best apple producer, and the farm Kleinfontein for best pear producer. In the same year, JH van der Merwe bought the farm Oumuur (previously known as Manor Farm) from the Teek family.
