SEW-Eurodrive’s annual Beerfest is held each year at venues across the country to say thank you to all the company’s customers for their support. The event has grown over the years and this year the Johannesburg gig moved offsite for the first time – to Rand Airport. The offsite venue allows SEW to grow the event in line with its customer base. Approximately 800 people attended the customer event in Johannesburg. It was also held in Cape Town and Nelspruit. In total 1400 SEW customers were entertained with good music, good food and good beer.
Seen here receiving clients are Ute Bormann, managing director, Tobias Nittel, SEW-Eurodrive Germany, and Renee Rose, general manager of Communications.
