The year 2020 will remain in our thoughts for a very long time, although for the wrong reasons. For some it represents a very sad story; for others it was a very inconvenient year; and then there is the group for which it was the year of opportunity! At Renati we decided to adopt an attitude to look for the opportunity in the storm. There is a saying ” in every failure or storm there is a seed of success and peace”. It is very easy to get into a caretaker mindset where you only protect what you have. We have intentionally made it our goal to attack growth and use the time during lockdown regulations to prepare for exponential growth, to develop new product functionality and to offer our customers a better service than before Covid. Therefore, it is no surprise that we finished our financial year end on 28 February 2021 as one of the best years in the history of the group and business. The group’s capital reserves were more than adequate to weather the storm of Covid. There was no need for any retrenchments and employees were remunerated with full benefits!
