Bureau Veritas Strengthens Regional Presence in Southern Africa

In Johannesburg, the company's new office in Sandton, was officially inaugurated. The event was attended by local employees and the regional leadership from South Africa, Zambia, and Namibia. This relocation places Bureau Veritas at the centre of Southern Africa's financial and commercial hub. The inauguration was followed by a client dinner that brought together key partners and stakeholders, reinforcing Bureau Veritas' role as a preferred partner in the Testing, Inspection, and Certification (TIC) sector in the region.

It comes as Bureau Veritas Mozambique recently celebrated its 15th anniversary, with celebrations taking place in their new offices in Maputo.

Khurram Majeed EVP Middle East, Caspian and Africa said“As part of Bureau Veritas' LEAP | 28 Strategy, Southern Africa has been identified as a key region for the company's growth on the African continent. I was pleased to visit the teams here and see the strength and commitment across the region. Their passion and expertise show that we are driving real impact for our clients.

Speaking on the regional head office move, Area Chief Executive for Southern Africa Gavin Hefer added, "Moving into the heart of Sandton puts us at the centre of the region’s commercial and innovation ecosystem. We are closer to our clients, partners, and key stakeholders – and better positioned to serve them. We are excited about our prospects in Southern Africa and there is a lot of energy within our teams to continue driving value to our clients.”
