A Night of Stars: Reflecting on the 2025 Annual Award Ceremony

On December 15th, 2025, the air was filled with anticipation and pride as we gathered for our flagship event of the year. The Annual Award Ceremony isn’t just about trophies; it’s a moment to pause and appreciate the collective heartbeat of our organization—the people.

The evening was elevated by our incredible Program Director, Mr. Macks Papo. Known to many by his popular persona Marothi Maphuthuma, he brought a perfect blend of humor, professionalism, and "Skeem Saam" energy that kept the crowd engaged from start to finish.

Honoring the Best of the Best

This year’s winners represented the diverse talent and relentless work ethic that define our culture. We celebrated excellence across nine distinct categories:

• Employee of the year

• Top 6 sales performers

• Remote rockstars (Working far from the office)

• Best New comer

• Most improved

• Community involvement

• 10 year service

• Lending hand (Those going an extra mile to help.

• Part-timers

More Than Just a Job

As Mr. Papo noted during the closing remarks, the success of the past year wasn't built on spreadsheets alone, but on the relationships and the "lending hands" that support our internal community.

To our winners: Congratulations. Your achievements set the gold standard. To the rest of the team: Thank you. Every milestone reached this year was a collaborative effort.

As we look toward 2026, we carry the energy of this night with us. Let’s continue to push boundaries, support one another, and strive for excellence in everything we do.
