earlier, so that we were ready and

available for 2015, to meet customer

demand and also to service those

who worked through the holiday

season.”

about our prospects for this year. It

is not without its challenges, such as

the electricity supply, but that aside,

the order book is looking very healthy

going forward. The fact that we offer

a superior quality product backed up

with reliable and professional tech-

nical and sales support, obviously

makes us a supplier of choice. There

is substantial growth anticipated for

the infrastructure, housing and com-

mercial development sector. This

year, our manufacturing capabilities

and product offering has increased

over 30% already and we believe this

will give us the edge.” said Lamont.
