David vs Goliath: Dept of Agric-supported counterfeiters messing with wrong lady

Loading player...
A story of exposing skullduggery of the worst kind - where a patented and design protected product owned by a small business has been counterfeited by tenderpreneurs and knowingly purchased by the South African State. But in Groenvoer's co-owner Cathy Khoury-Prinsloo, the crooks are messing with the wrong person. She hired a patent lawyer and is determined to see the matter through to its ultimate conclusion.

And it won't be the public servants and the crooked cohorts they are protecting. - Alec Hogg Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
