Proper technical support is key to running our farming and grading operations. It is thus an important discipline at Sher! Generators need to run smoothly; the greenhouses need proper maintenance and machinery and equipment need to be safe and ready for use. This is an important department in our business and requires technically qualified professionals. Besides that we carry out all construction work under our own management.
