With a staff complement of 40 people, Pepla was built on honesty, integrity and code. Pepla is a provider of IT software solutions for those seeking to digitally expand their businesses. Our company culture is built around a shared passion for creating solutions tailored to our clients' individual needs.
Pepla Software Solutions aims at building software that changes lives, in an effective professional manner. Taking into account our clients' vision, understanding their needs, and providing an efficient solution. For a company that analyses trends, it's important that our employees are up-to-date with evolving technology. Our employees are people who have a thirst for knowledge, and they continuously feed on that thirst with a tenacious desire to find new opportunities to learn.
We are driven to work swiftly and expertly for all our clients. Every employee at Pepla loves sharing, helping and uplifting others to assist in reaching Pepla's common goal and illustrate the company's dedication to being both professional and personal.
Honouring commitments both verbal and written, providing services, being part of our clients' journey and supporting the community around us. Pepla supports its team members in all aspects of their lives — members of the company's leadership team extend their mentorship beyond the workplace.
At Pepla we believe that the client and employee success rate and satisfaction are the top two priorities. The two are an integral part of the company's culture, and support one another to create an external and internal formation of brand ambassadors.
"Clean code always looks like it was written by someone who cares." — Robert C. Martin
Our superior workforce management leads to tangible value across each function in our company. Pepla's workforce consists of problem-solving experts, we currently employ a diverse range of individuals. Our staff members consist of software developers, business analysts, a finance department and a marketing team that includes design.
Developers work together in teams known as the Orange, Blue, Green Teams, and a White Team for business analysts. Each team has a dedicated working environment, a team lead, and a director assigned. The teams meet up once a week to share information and progress on the various projects that have been implemented.
We have found that dividing into smaller teams assists in keeping focus on the current tasks and projects while keeping meeting times to a minimum.
The three leaves in the logo represent the three teams within the organisation, each team has a director, a team lead and various software development resources assigned.
Orange creates a heightened sense of activity, increased socialisation, and boosts aspiration. It stimulates mental activity, enhances happiness, confidence, and understanding, and helps aid decision making.
Green symbolises good health and offers a balance between body and mind. It brings harmony and is associated with growth, freshness and energy.
Blue represents introspective journeys and symbolises wisdom and depth of understanding. It carries connotations of stability, wisdom, and serenity.
Fun Fact: The word Pepla in some languages means to cover, to clothe, or to fit a garment — which to us represents the solutions we custom fit for our clients.
Building Software that changes lives, in an elegant professional manner. Being available to our clients, understanding their needs, and providing a fitting solution.

Pepla has been providing streamlined software services to businesses for over a decade.
Pepla's origin starts with Johann Combrink, the Director of Pepla, who envisioned creating a software development company with a truly vibrant culture that has grown into a professional powerhouse while expanding boundaries in software solutions. He built Pepla up from working in a garage with a few young budding devs, that through hard work and perseverance has flourished into the professional company it is today.
We found that there are a lot of people who can code, but not all code is equal. We found that there was an increased professional need for people who could build a solid solution correctly the first time round. We aim to build, maintain and integrate outsourcing solutions for all our clients.
We have fun while working hard combining a relaxed environment with high standards of professionalism. We invest our time and technical skills within all our client's projects, understanding their needs to fix various problems, defining that problem and then proposing a solution to fit them. We work closely and meticulously with you for each stage in your project's development to discover and build the technology solutions that your business needs to excel.
