During the week of 24 - 28 July, 3 members of the Bosch Rexroth board as well as senior management from Bosch Rexroth in Germany visited the Hytec Group and its subsidiary companies.
The reason for the visit was to familiarise themselves with the various Hytec Group operations before the joint venture agreement comes to an end on 1 January 2018, and the group becomes a fully integrated Bosch Rexroth company.
The Bosch Rexroth board is interested in the unique Hytec Group model as it supports its strategy of expansion into Africa. Bosch Rexroth sees Africa as a market for major development.
Pictured outside the Hytec Group’s offices in Johannesburg’s East Rand are, (from l): Mr. Peter Daus – Business Development Manager, Bosch Rexroth AG; Mr. Gunter Quaisser – Director - Sales Co-ordination Africa, Bosch Rexroth AG; Mr. Lucas Wintjes – Regional President – Africa, Bosch Rexroth AG; Mr. John Wingrove – Chief Executive Officer, Hytec Group; Dr. Markus Forschner – Executive President and Chief Financial Officer, Bosch Rexroth AG; Mr. Rolf Najork – Chairman of the Executive Board, Bosch Rexroth AG; Dr. Marc Wucherer – Executive Vice President Sales, Bosch Rexroth AG; Mr. Andrew Castle – Chief Financial Officer, Hytec Group; and Mr. Tillmann Olsen – Deputy Chief Executive Officer, Hytec Group.
