“The Nelson Mandela Bay Business Chamber welcomes member company Shatterprufe’s R400 million investment in a new production line at its Neave plant in Nelson Mandela Bay. This is a positive development which reinforces the critical importance of automotive components manufacturing, as part of the broader automotive eco-system in the Bay.”
“While this comes at a time when local manufacturing is under immense pressure, it highlights the world class capabilities of companies like Shatterprufe, which produce high quality products that meet local and export market standards.”
“We commend Shatterprufe for its resilience, innovation and agility in navigating the challenging operating environment, and for their ongoing commitment to investing in the Bay, providing employment and supporting local communities.”
“Finally, despite this positive news, in order to retain and attract investment and employment in the metro, it is critical that efforts are stepped up to create a conducive and enabling environment in which business can operate. This starts with the maintenance of infrastructure and delivery of basic services such as electricity, water and sanitation, roads and safety and security,” says Chamber CEO, Denise van Huyssteen.
