COSAVE MICA KARNAVAL
Op 23 September 2017 het Cosave Mica gedoen wat ons die beste doen - en dit was om ons klante te bederf met ‘ n heerlike karnaval waar ons letterlik produkte teen die beste pryse weggegee het !
Cosave Mica het ‘ n goeie verhouding met al sy verskaffers en dit was daarom nie moeilik om hulle ook aan boord te kry nie . Prodist , wat bekend is vir produkte soos Basecamp kampstoele , Coleman koelhouers , braaitange , isoleerband , braaiers en driewielgrassnyers het glad nie geskroom om ons te help om hierdie dag ‘ n groot sukses te maak nie ! Ander verskaffers soos Matus , Matwell , Ryobi , King Toni , BB Cement , Hallo Today Ligte , Gorilla en Okuma was ook betrokke , om maar net ‘ n paar te noem .
Die doel van die dag was om aan ons bestaande klante iets terug te gee en ook nuwe klante by die Cosave Mica familie te verwelkom en ‘ n fees van hoogstaande gehalte in ons area aan te bied .
Daar was hope stalletjies , kos vir elke smaak en geur en vermaak vir oud en jonk . Pieter Koen was ons gasheer vir die dag en hy het ons ook vermaak met ‘ n optrede soos net hy kan . Irene-Louise van Wyk en die groep Saartjie het ook kleur aan die dag verleen .
Pieter Koen en Cosave se Andre Pretorius
