With a powerful new management team headed by Chad Andrews, Lapp is keen to implement the values of the long-established family business in South Africa. The policy of company founders, Ursula Ida and Oskar Lapp, has always been to put the customer first and to work very closely with them in order to make sure they always get the best possible solution. “Customers can rest assured that they will always get the best solution from Lapp,” says Andrews. “I identify myself with the Lapp culture and its customer orientation.”
In South Africa, numerous well-known companies use Lapp products in mechanical engineering, automation and food production, to name just a few. Lapp is a full-service partner for components such as industrial cables and connectors, as well as ready-made connectivity solutions, and offers an exemplary service. “We believe in South Africa as an important market for the future,” says Andreas Lapp, CEO of the Lapp Group. “The company’s strategy is to develop global markets by focusing on local customer needs and maintaining a cooperative relationship.”
