Limpopo Economic Development MEC, Hon. Seaparo Sekoati said, “To quote Marc Beniof, a member of the world Economic Forum Board of Trustees on the fourth industrial revolution, He asserts that; “In the coming decades, the technologies driving the fourth industrial revolution will fundamentally transform the entire structure of the world economy, our communities and our human identities, these profound changes highlight the great responsibilities we face as civilisation, we have to make choices and contribute as citizens, government, officials and business leaders to design systems that ensure benefits and risks are carefully weighed and

new systems arise with common values and clear purposes in mind that benefit everyone in the planet. We are therefore on that note welcoming the birth of ParkerStore in Limpopo as it correctly located itself within the parameters of the developments taking shape in the province.”

"We are pleased to bring quality Parker products to our growing customer base in the Limpopo area," said Brian Munetsi, Executive Director ParkerStore™ Limpopo. "My entrepreneurial venture was born 11 years ago on my dining room table with my first big order for Parker products.  Since then we have gained vast industry experience that sets us apart from our competitors."
