/About Us
Ground Water Practitioners (GWP) was formed in 1980, formally known as "Pump and Pipe Centre". In 1980 the company changed its name to Ground Water Practitioners and became a (Pty) Ltd company with a core business of servicing the groundwater industry. Through the guidance of directors and founding members Roy and Maryke Shearer, GWP has over the years evolved to become the leaders in the ground water industry.

GWP is committed to safe abstraction of water resources whilst empowering the disadvantaged to make a sustainable livelihood.
