4th Quarter 2011 News & events

BMG recently hosted a two-day open day event for customers to showcase the company’s extensive product range, which is supported by solutions based technical services throughout southern Africa. This event, which was held at BMG Park in Johannesburg, highlighted BMG’s different product and service divisions – bearings, seals, power transmission, drives, hydraulics, belting, fasteners, electronics and technical services.

“We were thrilled with the huge attendance of key players in diverse sectors of our business,” said Charles Walters, BMG’s CEO. “Growth at BMG has been organic and through strategic acquisitions the company increased its turnover to R2,4 billion in 2010, with a current group stockholding of R900 million. We have also been upgraded to BEE Level 3 status, which means customers can claim BEE procurement recognition of 110% against all purchases.”
