Women’s Day celebrations at TASEZ

Uncategorised / By

The Tshwane Automotive Special Economic Zone took some time out of the day on Friday, 8 August 2025 to celebrate and honour the women staff of the special economic zone, the day ahead of South Africa’s Women’s Day. As the women started arriving at work, they were greeted by a significant message playing on the screen at the TASEZ head office reception. The familiar TASEZ logo was prominently displayed along with its well-known pay-off line “Africa’s first automotive city”. But that message soon changed. Breaking from tradition, the TASEZ pay-off line morphed into “National Women’s Month – you are the heartbeat”. Then came an unexpected message – an explanation as to why TASEZ had taken the bold step to amend its pay-off line for August: “We decided to change the branding because you have changed us”. The women were also greeted by TASEZ’s Infrastructure Executive, Andile Sangweni. He acknowledged those in the room, noting they were all women of resilience and strength. “I thank each and every one of you for being the strong women you are – not the women of social media, but the women who stand their ground and excel.” He reminded the group of the historic Women’s March on 9 August 1956, when 20 000 women from across the country converged on the Union Buildings, just a few kilometres from where TASEZ is located, to deliver signed petitions against the apartheid pass laws, which severely curtailed the movement of black South Africans. “If I had to characterise the women of that time, they were women of courage, they were women of resilience, they were strong women,” Sangweni said, pausing briefly before adding that when he looked around the room, he saw the same. Acknowledging that the women often found themselves in an environment that could be difficult for them, in an environment dominated by men, he saw them always striving to do better and achieve. “I thank you for setting the example, I thank you for passing on the torch to the younger generation.” The women of TASEZ have taken to heart the message from the United Nations’ secretary general, António Guterres, when he said: “When women and girls can rise, we all thrive.”
