Corp Comms – Goodbye to 2023.

In the halls where Colart\’s stories reside,A year\’s journey unfolds, a spirited ride,With Corporate Communications as our guide,Let\’s gather \’round, our tale to confide.

As the winds of change gently blow,We bid adieu to Dennis, CEO in tow,Romain steps in with vision aglow,A new chapter begins, ready to grow.

Mark Coulson, a legend, we extol,38 years of wisdom, tales that enthrall,His travels, a tapestry, weaving through all,Inspiring us onward, standing tall.

Amidst this tapestry, a digital thread,An intranet unveiled, where paths are led,To cycle through Colart\’s world widespread,Empowering journeys, where dreams are fed.

Engagement embraced, a bond uncurled,DEI councils, gender gaps unfurled,Wellbeing thrived, initiatives swirled,In unity, our Colart family unfurled.

Mentoring lessons, a guiding light,Options galore, in the Academy\’s sight,Learning and growth, a boundless height,Fueling ambitions, shining bright.

Green hues paint our sustainable scene,B Corp certified, our mission keen,Impact reports, a new look pristine,A commitment steadfast, eco-friendly sheen.

And as 2024 beckons with its call,We cast our gaze, standing tall,Performing to 2030, our mission enthrall,Quality, Passion, Agility, and Accountability overall.

So, to all in Colart, this ode we confide,For another year\’s journey, side by side,In camaraderie, we stride,See you next year for another fun ride.

and that is \”over and out\” from me!

Much love to one and all,  Gareth xxx

2023 business development recap

As we close the year and look ahead of what we want to achieve in 2024, we also look back what 2023 has brought us.

For the business development team, we had the pleasure and honour to collaborate with the local markets and our manufacturing sites.But none would have happened without all other Colart teams who helped support us: from legal to finance and customer service to procurement.

We wanted to give a short highlight of achievements through the lens of the three business development pillars.  

And a big shoutout to all commercial colleagues who did the selling, the manufacturing sites making the products and all teams pulling together to get us there!

It was a full and exciting year and want to thank everybody involved for helping us achieve these milestones.

We look forward to collaborating with you in the new year!

Neesha and Jasper

Community days – all Sales colleagues on board! Whether collecting and separating food at the TAFEL, reading to the kindergarten kids or drawing together with children, or collecting waste! It was a good day for all of us, in the spirit of community, which we would like to repeat in 2024.
