We are thrilled to announce a major development for our company as we recently established a new legal entity in South Africa under the oversight of Element Mining and Construction Oy. This strategic move marks an important milestone as we expand our presence in the African continent, ensuring that our customers receive the best customer service.

To spearhead this exciting venture, we are proud to introduce Tommi Makinen, our esteemed colleague and Head of Operations. With his comprehensive understanding and knowledge of Element’s business operations, processes, products, and services Tommi has been instrumental in driving our success.

When asked about his new role, Tommi shared his enthusiasm, stating:

“I am honored to take on the role of Branch Director and lead our South African entity. I am excited to contribute to the growth of our business in the Sub-Saharan region and I am looking forward to creating long-lasting relationships and collabrations with our customers and suppliers”.

As we build a local team to support our operations in South Africa, we are confident that Tommi’s leadership will enable us to deliver exceptional service to our customers. Together, we are excited about the opportunities this expansion brings and are committed to keeping you updated on our progress and exciting developments in the region.
