H&A has recruited Samuel Mothibi as the company’s General Manager. His solid background in Human Resources and his experience as General Manager for the Standard Chartered Bank will be an enormous benefit to Exelco when recruiting the first group of polishers.
In January 2007, Leo Claes was recruited as the new Technical Director for H&A Botswana. Mr. Claes’ 35 years of experience in all aspects of diamond manufacturing will be highly beneficial to the success of the company.
H&A has also recruited an initial group of 20 Batswana, who have relocated to Bangkok Thailand, to be trained in all aspects of advanced diamond manufacturing. Upon completion of the factory construction, this team, together with a team of about 20 Thai instructors, will return to Gaborone in December 2007, to commence manufacturing in Botswana.
