The Sugarfest committee would like to thank you all for attending Sugarfest 2013. We have been over whelmed with the response we have had for this year’s show. We had over 80 stands with over 600 visitors. We were blessed with beautiful weather and were able to enjoy an “accident-free show”.

The winner of the best stand on show was Jubane, with runners up Unicab & Desmond Equipment.

The Sugar shaker was an enormous success! This year the race clashed with a children’s golf tournament here at Mtunzini – and parents have begged us to have it again next time! The Tug-of-war was popular and fun with the team from Oilco being unbeatable!

We are always interested in improving the show and would therefore appreciate any comments or ideas for improvement.

We do know we need to get more plug points and need to get some sort of water available closer to the stands – these are suggestions that cropped up during the show. The DJ/announcer was great as it gave our exhibitors the chance to make announcements.

Thank you for your support and we look forward to seeing you all again in 2015.

Kind regards,
