Stuart Thomson was the pioneer and head specialist of the Gaia Exploration Establishment during the 1990s alongside his significant other Lettie Thomson.
They began providing the first "original" health stores in South Africa under the name Gaia Organics. These stores included Field's in Kloof St. Cape Town, Health Fayre in Rondebosch, The Good Stuff in Claremont, and Fruits & Roots in Johannesburg, which was initially owned by Pritam & Har Bajan Khalsa.
Stuart and Lettie retired in 2011.Claudia Henderson now owns the business after twenty years of working closely with her parents and mentors.
Although new products have been added over the years as the company continues to evolve and innovate, the original formulations remain unchanged.
