As business in Namibia has been steadily growing over recent years, Lead sees Namibia as strategically important in its efforts to strengthen and entrench its position as a Southern African leader in the supply and after sales service of professional laundry and kitchen equipment. We believe we cannot aspire to be a leader in Namibia without having our feet on the ground.
Please join us in welcoming Bertie van der Merwe to the Lead family. Lead is excited about the possibilities Bertie’s skills and experience bring to its future Namibian operations. Bertie is responsible for ensuring Lead’s customers receive dedicated, focussed, competent and rapid NATIONWIDE technical support. We are excited about the new levels of technical skill and customer service that he will offer our customers in Namibia.
LEAD views growth outside South Africa’s borders as a strategic priority and to this end recently appointed Vincent Dawson to the position of Africa Business Development Manager. Vincent is widely experienced in the equipment supply industry and has many years of experience dealing in Africa. He is tasked with setting up the necessary service and sales channels in all sub Saharan African countries, so as to ensure our customers enjoy the world class service they deserve, regardless of where they are situated.
