One of the Association's Executive Council Members, Rob Bremner, bid farewell to Avange Grinaker-LTA on 31 January 2012. Rob held the position of Managing Director with the company and has worked for them for more than 28 years.

Unusual for this early stage of the year, we are having great difficulty booking venues for meetings and events on the days that we would like to have them, hopefully this is indicative of an improving local economy.

Welcome back after a well deserved break. We started the year off running with our CSI project and are currently assisting the Izulu orphanage and Thuthukani School.

Letter to Mr Pierre Fourie of Master Builders South Africa from Paul Roux, Managing Director MozFood & Energy Ltd:

Master Builders KwaZulu-Natal currently has the lowest subscription rates of any of the Master Builders Associations in South Africa. The subs for the 2012/13 will be a mere R240 (including Vat) per month.
