SAIMC Secunda branch hosted their annual year-end function at Graceland Casino, Hotel and Country Club on Friday, 17 November.
Mr Johan Maritz, chairman, said: “This was an event which everyone looked forward to and a great way to strengthen ties with vendors, suppliers, sponsors and all our members in the instrumentation and control industry. This was a showcase and celebration of the SAIMC Secunda branch’s accomplishments this year.”
