Electra Mining Africa 2018 took place at the Johannesburg Expo Centre earlier this month, attracting more than 29 000 visitors from 59 countries. Thousands of potential buyers had an opportunity to network and meet with over 850 exhibitors, as well as industry experts and advisers. This year’s event focused on the five themes of local manufacturing, safety, diversity, skills development and new products. This elevated perspective of the exhibition was facilitated courtesy of an impressive piece of equipment exhibited by work-at-height and materials handling solutions firm Eazi Access.
