ADAPTING easily from a marine environment to a terrestrial one, executive members of the Port of Richards Bay toured the Zululand Observer operations last week.

They were fascinated by the world of designs, deadlines, paper and printing presses as they were taken through the entire process of what it entail to produce a newspaper.

‘Understanding your operation helps us to properly and timeously respond to your queries and requests for editorial or advertising content,’ said Port Manager, Preston Khomo.

Port Manager, Preston Khomo presented a much-appreciated 40-year ‘then and now’ commemorative picture to ZO Business Manager, Lee Anthony
