Reviews

“I would like to give a huge shout-out to Schalk Holtzhausen of M&J Distributors and Sales who came to sort out our gas geyser today! I had a problem with the geyser in my guest flat and honestly did not think I would get anyone to sort out the problem on a Sunday. Schalk arrived within 20 minutes. Thank you so much for your excellent service, you make Gansbaai lekker!” Geraldine Bosch-Goossen
