Wool

On average South African Wool growers shear their sheep every 8 to 12 months and deliver their bales of ‘Greasy Wool’ to various brokering companies in Port Elizabeth. It is then presented in sale ‘lots’ to the various buying houses for evaluation. Each ‘lot’ of Greasy Wool is tested comprehensively by the Wool Testing Bureau of South Africa. Thereafter, the Stucken buyers assess the ‘lots’ on offer for style and length prior to the auction. This allows the buyers to determine what is available and what needs to be bought to meet their clients’ specific requirements.

The Stucken Group has been selling Wool since 1864 and offer the following:

  • An indent and forward offer Greasy Wool buying service
