South Africa is blessed with a wide spectrum of minerals which includes gold, platinum, copper, coal, chrome, diamonds and more. Some minerals illustrate sheer beauty while others grease the machinery of our continent’s – and the world’s – economy. The business of mining is probably one of the most dynamic sectors to be involved in, especially when it comes to doing business in South Africa. Cities, power stations and jobs are the result of an industry that has survived the toughest economic and political times.
However, nothing so significant comes without its challenges – health and safety is critical, water and electricity are more precious and the growing need for sustainable practices is more vital than ever before, in a world where global warming is encroaching on our survival as a species.
Mines know this and so do suppliers. In 2023 MTE celebrated 30 years of bringing mines and suppliers together. Mines will always need expert consultation on issues such as flooding from damaged pumps, rock falls, power blackouts and power tools that do not emit sparks in a gaseous environment, for instance. The list is endless. “Owing to our relationships in the mining industry in southern Africa, MTE is able to successfully host beneficial and impactful exhibitions on or close to key operations. More recently, MTE has also become renowned for incorporating general industry and construction into its portfolio. The areas we have visited over the years have a massive appetite for these industries. Feedback illustrates that this has worked and so, aside from pure mining, there will be specific expos which incorporate other trade aspects, especially those that best reflect the area such as our sugar, ports and logistics industrial exhibition in Richard’s Bay,” says Andrew Macnamara, operations director at MTE.
With more than a quarter of a century under its belt, it is safe to say that MTE is an established leader in organising and hosting travelling exhibitions across a diversity of industries that reflect the brand’s growth and versatility. Its success is attributed to the relationships that MTE has developed with mines and exhibitors alike, the excellent team of dedicated MTE staff and the company’s growing footprint in Africa, together with its consistency in delivering high-quality and high-impact exhibitions.
With these elements in place, greater success in the future is inevitable for your business and MTE – your travelling exhibition specialist.
