About
We design and develop apps for companies all over the world.
Glucode was founded by PJ van Dyk and Nico du Plessis with the aim of developing apps for the iPhone, shortly after Apple launched its iPhoneOS SDK. Our first client, Creamer Media, trusted us to create the Mining Weekly iPhone app. This was the first app developed in South Africa to be available in the App Store, and it has since become a highly-rated, trusted news source for the international mining industry.
Today, we continue to assist our clients in creating globally competitive apps that span various sectors including finance, insurance, health, transport, and entertainment. We pride ourselves on maintaining strong business relationships with both local and internationally respected companies
