Security Services & Risk Management
LG Industrial Systems SA has opened its Johannesburg branch office, situated at 24 Waterford Park, Witkoppen Road, Fourways, with effect from 1 February 2005.
The branch opening follows rapid growth in all industries over the past four years and a positive response to the LG equipment on show at Elektra Mining 2004.
The branch will initially be headed up by Peter Gross as branch manager and Clive Shawe as sales manager. A good stock complement will be held, in order to respond quickly to urgent local demand. LG Industrial Systems SA is a support related concern, and as such the opening of the Johannesburg office will serve to enhance this philosophy and reputation. A feature of the new office is the inclusion of a comprehensive training facility, offering clients the opportunity of obtaining in-depth knowledge of the premium range of LG industrial equipment. Regular training courses will be offered.
