Specialisation
As a start up, we are, at present, working per order. With consistent work want to grow into a fully fledged business that houses world class technology and facilities thereby improving our Turn Around Times for delivery. Carving out a niche market is essential to a sustainable growth trajectory because it will allow us to invest a focused amount of energy and time into perfecting what we do best for the acquisition and retention of long term contracts in this regard.Diversification
Inherent in our business model is a diverse offering of products and services geared at appealing to a varied clientele base and needs analyses. Whilst our primary strategy is specialization the intertwined nature of the industry doesn’t allow us to ‘operate in a silo’ and therefore structured diversification is relevant to our particular model.Organic Growth
At present we recruit working staff on an ad-hoc basis. Our plan is to have temporary and permanent staff of no less than 15 employees in the short-to-medium term and to grow that number steadily every year. With inevitable growth of human resources there will be growth of assets, offices, warehouses, vehicles etc.Nothing better defines our Vision, Objectives and Aspirations than our Tag Line:
