Liandri Malan has been the director of Bierman Malan Optometrists in Hermanus CBD, Whale Coast Mall in Sandbaai and Gansbaai at the Great White Junction since 2019.
Wikus Bierman founded the Bierman Group when he opened his first practice in Kraaifontein, in 2001.

The Bierman Group now includes more than 20 practices, most run by partners.
