KSA Gauteng holds their September Affiliate Product Evening

In September KSA Gauteng held its quarterly Affiliate Product evening,
The purpose of these evenings is to provide a platform to show case the affiliate members’ products as well as help keep you informed to the latest designs and trends. Each evening is hosted by 3 different suppliers in the industry.

The master of ceremonies for the evening was Alfredo Veiga of Sariga Designer Kitchens, who is currently the Gauteng Executive committee’s chairman and he began by thanking the sponsors of the evening. Eclipse Furniture and Hardware supplies doubled as host and sponsor for the evening with co-sponsors Best Italia and Caesarstone. Each got the opportunity to outline some of their new & exciting products and their respective features.

Andre Hacquebord, the KSA’s installer’s course coordinator, was able to address the industry with regards to the KSA Installers course as he was running the September course. He also spoke about the new training courses that are being planned. The installers courses, which has been running since 2001, is in the process of getting a face lift and being expanded from a standard course to an intermediate and advanced course. There have never been any specialised kitchen installation training courses offered in the industry and this is why the KSA has started this initiative. Courses will be offered in basic, intermediate and what they call ‘the master course’ which is the advanced course.

The evening was a great success and enjoyed by all.
