Phoenix Contact bids farewell to GM Peter Mauff

October 2019 News

Peter Mauff took on the position of general manager back in 2005, and sadly, after 14 years of loyal service, Phoenix Contact has bade him farewell.

The company grew exceptionally well under his leadership and the team developed into a professional outfit offering top quality services and solutions.


Peter Mauff.

Mauff was instrumental in the upgrading of the Randburg premises, which are now world class boasting a 62 seat auditorium. He also oversaw the upgrade to the Cape Town and Durban offices, which are now also in line with the headquarters in Randburg. Phoenix Contact wishes Peter all the best in the next chapter of his life; may he enjoy many happy years of travel, adventure, golf and of course relaxation. He was always a complete gentleman and will be sorely missed by everyone in the industry.
