Actom rolls out R100m plant expansion in Pretoria
Electrical equipment supplier Actom has started rolling out a R100-million investment in expansions at its plant in Pretoria.
The announcement was initially made as a pledge at the fifth South African Investment Conference in April this year.
The expansion of the Pretoria plant will see 30 more people being employed, in addition to the company’s 7 000-strong staff complement across 34 operating units, 53 production and repair facilities and 33 distribution outlets throughout Southern Africa.
Actom offers energy solutions through its businesses and partners, including advanced products to address issues facing the electro-mechanical industry, from large-scale infrastructure installations to smaller projects and support services.
Actom has been expanding its plant in Pretoria to build local capacity in manufacturing of electro-mechanical equipment, particularly as the renewable energy market grows.
The Investment Conference garnered a total investment pledge value of R1.5-trillion over the next five years, exceeding President Cyril Ramaphosa’s target of R1.2-trillion.
