South Africa is known for being home to a diverse range of traditions, customs, and beliefs which comprises the nation’s decorated collective heritage. The Empact Group in Frankenwald embraced this by celebrating Heritage Day a few days earlier, on September 19. The rooftop braai-themed function saw employees dress in cultural attire from a variety of customs native, and introduced over time, to South Africa.

Empact group CEO Alan Quinn said that this was the fourth year in which the organisation was bringing all its employees together in a way which allows people to get to know one another’s heritages better.
“Heritage Day has become our annual day of celebrations; we aren’t only celebrating South African heritages, but our organizational heritage as well,” said Quinn. “This is where we celebrate our cultures, values, purpose, and who we are as an organisation. We also get to take a little time out, and have some fun.”
Every colour on display, through beautiful textiles, blended-in well with the atmosphere, and the buzz, generated by staff, who mingled with colleagues over food and drinks, celebrating the abundance of heritage in Sandton.
