It is always so exciting to be involved in awards events. The excitement is palpable and all the hard work rolls into ultimate recognition. None more so than the Africa Supply Chain Excellence Awards (ASCEA) Supply Chain Excellence Awards which we have been involved with since the very beginning 4years ago! Well done to all involved and congratulations to all the winners and those recognised for outstanding achievement. Thank you especially to the volunteer judges who do more than judge. They mentor, guide and advise. Thanks to the directors and well done to the small but mighty Upavon Team with special thanks to Conor Fincham for all the support. #eventmanagement #supplychain #africa Liesl De Wet Clare Fincham Jenny Froome

🎉 Upavon Management is 30! 🎉 This month, we celebrate a milestone that fills us with pride and gratitude — 30 years of Upavon Management. What began as a small family run organisation founded by Clive and Jenny Froome, their vision has grown into three decades of partnerships, conferences, challenges overcome, and unforgettable moments across Africa and around the globe. To every organisation, association, client and attendee who entrusted their event to us — thank you. Your faith in Upavon made this journey possible. The trust, collaboration and friendships formed along the way have meant more than we can say. Thank you also to the small but strong team working at Upavon today for all that you do - Cindy-Lee Vosloo, Cynthia Kekae, Caidan Makin and Stacey Oliphant Here’s to the incredible people we've worked with, the wonderful venues, the events we’ve brought to life together, and the stories still to come. #Upavon30Years #EventManagement #Gratitude #MilestoneMoments #SupplyChainConferences #conferences #AfricanEvents #ThankYou

We are very proud to have been able to work with SAPICS to create this brilliant platform for these outstanding stories of supply chain excellence and innovation. Even better that they are winners of the Africa Supply Chain Excellence Awards (ASCEA) that we are excited to be managing again this year. Fantastic work all round. #supplychain #supplychainexcellence #community #Africa #eventmanagement
The Africa Supply Chain Excellence Awards (ASCEA) applauds the inclusion of two of our outstanding past winners in the recent SAPICS Annual Conference programme! Jaycee Kent from BCE delivered an exceptional presentation entitled “BCE's Survive and Thrive DDMRP Implementation – a Case Study” as part of the Demand Driven World programme where he shared the journey that earned BCE an ASCEA award for innovation and resilience in action. Procure Africa, winner of the first-ever SAPICS Pitch Parade, wowed the audience and judges alike in a high-energy final where three innovators had just five minutes each to impress. Procure Africa’s performance sealed their well-deserved victory! These recognitions reinforce that the ASCEA judges are right on the mark when it comes to identifying and celebrating true supply chain excellence across the continent. Join us to celebrate the 2025 winners on 7th August 2025 at Montecasino, Fourways, South Africa – more info www.ascea.co.za Jenny Froome, Clare Fincham, Liesl De Wet #ASCEA #SupplyChainExcellence #SAPICS2025 #AfricaSupplyChain #InnovationInMotion #DDMRP #Procurement #PitchParade #BCE

Thank you so much to Archie Vermeulen and the team at RAM Hand to Hand Couriers for getting all our "stuff" from our offices in Midrand, as well as the SAPICS materials for the annual conference, to the Century City Conference Centre last week and back again. So efficient and with such helpful, friend, professional people. The truck arrived on time at both locations with all goods intact. Invaluable support RAM - thank you so very much. #collaboration #supportsponsors #courierservices #logistics

On #youthday 2025 we would like to thank Industrial Logistic Systems and F.H. Bertling Logistics for your support in sponsoring a number of students to attend the recent SAPICS annual conference. Every single one of the students that attended confirmed that it was an experience like no other and the wealth of content was extraordinary. The opportunity to meet and network with people already well entrenched in supply chain management was oustanding. Thank you for your trust in the idea and also for your support in encouraging the next generation of supply chain professionals in South Africa. Education is more than textbooks #nextgen #supplychainmanagement #supplychain #educationmatters #opportunity #africa

The absolute Dream Team. Thank you Jenny Froome for a terrific #youthday post. Thank you team for all you did to ensure a successful SAPICS annual conference. Thanks also to the entire team Century City Conference Centre for being the extended team that we love working with. #teamwork #TEAM #eventmanagement #capetown
On #youthday in South Africa I want to give thanks for Zimkitha Bavuma for recommending 3 exceptional young men to assist us at the recent SAPICS 2025 annual conference. All 2nd year students Armondo, Dennick and Lutho quickly became indispensable members of the Upavon Management team and we so enjoyed having them with us. Hard working and with a terrific customer service attitude they were a real joy to work with. Our very own intern Stacey Oliphant who has been working with us since the end of April took to the event like a duck to water. Outstanding in every way she was such an asset to the team and we are incredibly proud of her work ethic, her service attitude and her attention to detail. Thank you also to our favourite Industrial Engineering student Jared who joined us again to work hard and be an invaluable member of our team again. Jared was a huge help interning with us last year and we were so delighted when he offered to return this year. What a learning curve it has been for all of them and we are so phenomenally grateful! Thank you all. Very proud of you all. The rest of the Upavon Team are also "youth" with the exception of Clive and me (still young at heart mind you). Thank you Caidan Makin Cindy-Lee Vosloo Stuart Froome Conor Fincham and Cynthia for everything you did to mentor and support our new recruits and ensure the success of this event. #eventmanagement #youngprofessionals #futureeventmanagers #hospitalityindustry #customerservice #teamwork #learning #educationmatters
