Our History
Bellgrove & Snell was founded in Johannesburg in 1892. John Vibert Snell immigrated from Cornwall and his partner, Charles Bellgrove, was Australian. Bellgrove & Snell started off selling paint, glass and wallpaper to builders in the fast growing town and also supplied Kimberly when the diamond boom settled down into a long- term industry. They then bought a site in Oxford Street, in East London, in order to be closer to the port, and continued to operate there for some 80 years. Our history is East London’s history. We are one of the oldest members of the Master Builders’ Association and the Border Kei Chamber of Commerce.
