BioPher (Pty) Ltd was established in 2008 to market and distribute AnnGro®, a product based on the Pheroid® Platform Technology (patented by the North West University), which has the ability to improve the uptake of inorganic fertilizer by plants.  In 2013 an agreement was signed with the Technology Innovation Agency, an agency of the Department of Science & Technology in South Africa, to develop a bio-nano-transporter system for improving the efficacy of pesticides in agriculture.  BioPher also developed unique liquid fertilizer products and coating agents. Anne Grobler participated in the program 2011.
