"It is a great honour for me to open this year's celebrations as Managing Director and I am delighted that so many current and past employees are present," explained Michael Stoevelbaek.

Thanks to the commitment of the staff, we again achieved a satisfactory result this year. Michael Stoevelbaek thanked the entire workforce for their dedication to the company. As a further acknowledgement of this, all staff were given an additional bonus at the end of the year.
