I have been purchasing from Frans now…

I have been purchasing from Frans now for the last couple of years now and to be honest, the team there are amazing. There is no order to big or to small. They always answer or call me back immediately. They ship from their store and suppliers to save money on freight. The service is amazing and I will never shop anywhere else and i live 24hours away from the store. Thank you Fran and your whole team for being super amazing.

Love hearing this - 🥹 thank you so much for the continued support over the last few years 😊

Comments like this honestly mean the world to us. We always try our best to make every order, big or small, as smooth and affordable as possible, especially when freight can get tricky being so far away.

Really appreciate the trust you place in us and our team. It’s customers like you that keep us passionate about what we do every day 🌿

Thanks again from all of us here at Fran’s Hydroponics 💚 – Fran

Store Owner always blames staff for failures.

The Owner (has founder as job title) is incompetent and blames her male staff for everything including conversations with her, she forgets from one conversation to the next what was said and always defaults to blaming her staff. I have had 3 dealings with this store the 1st time was a failure and she blamed staff so I gave the store a second chance on a no brainer sale and it went through no problems, the 3rd time involved her and after a week of time wasting the sale fell through again because of her incompetency. There are so many other stores within a 30km radius of this store, all of them should be explored before trying this place. After speaking with Frans shipping company they confirmed they would not be delivering the order because of the way it was packaged was a health hazard to everyone, still days later I am waiting for a refund. Bank says it could be months before they complete their investigation. Your future self will thank you for shopping anywhere else.

Hi Boris,

We’re sorry to hear you were dissatisfied with your experience.

For clarity:

• Your order was dispatched as packaged, following confirmation that the items would be individually wrapped.
• After dispatch, you expressed concerns regarding the packaging method and requested that the shipment not proceed.
• We arranged for the consignment to be recalled prior to delivery.
• The returned goods were received intact.
• A full refund was processed accordingly.
• At no point did our freight provider classify the parcel as hazardous.

We take our responsibilities seriously and stand by both our team and our documented processes.

Fran’s Hydroponics has been operating for 27 years, and we are proud of the consistent feedback from our long-standing customer base.

We wish you all the best moving forward.

– Fran
