About Thokozani

Thokozani means "a celebration" and it is in this spirit that our project is launched – with its central and crucial focus on training and development as an absolute necessity to the achievement of sustainable economic empowerment.

The business operations will initially consist of a new Thokozani wine brand that was launched in September 2005, as well as Thokozani Conferences - which will take over the existing conference business at Diemersfontein ,and will build its own accommodation complex - The Thokozani Suites, thus enabling a bigger conference business to be created. These businesses will start at Diemersfontein and be in partnership with Diemersfontein - by using the existing infrastructure and part of its staff contingent, but will be structured in such a way as to allow and encourage development outside of the Estate after an appropriate consolidation period. We think of it as "a business within a business, but free to fly".
