Afrikaans.com se moedertaalprojek weereens ’n groot sukses
Die moedertaalprojek is een van Afrikaans.com se grootste projekte en gaan steeds elke jaar van krag tot krag. Vanjaar was geen uitsondering nie.
Bayer Women’s Days: Uppe brings the spirit of spring
September brought with it not only spring, but another successful event masterfully organised and executed by the Uppe-team.
Our most recent event was a weeklong Women’s Day celebration for Bayer Crop Science, which took place over five days in five different venues across the country. These sessions, which commemorated it’s fifteenth anniversary this year, aimed to empower, inform, acknowledge and thank women for the role they play in agriculture.
My Afrikaans tel…joune ook!
Ons het in Mei afgeskop met ons vierde veldtog en Afrikaans.com en Uppe Marketing het behoorlik geskiedenis gemaak. Dit is die eerste keer dat ’n Afrikaans.com-veldtog slegs op digitale platforms uitspeel en ook die eerste keer wat een van ons veldtogte “viral” gegaan het.
Uppe showcases it’s best at Sustainability Week Conference
Uppe was proud to be part of this year’s annual Sustainability Week held on 24-26 June 2019. One of our clients, BASF, was one of the main sponsors of the event which took place at the CSIR in Pretoria.
Met elke haal van die kwas gee Afrikaans.com hoop
Uppe was weer woelig in Afrikaans einde verlede maand! Een van ons kliënte, Afrikaans.com, het ’n klein dorpie in die Wes-Kaap, genaamd Pniel, opgehelder met hul verfkwasse tydens die jaarlikse Muurkunsprojek.
Afrikaans.com het hande gevat met die Pniel Erfenis en Kultuur Trust en besluit om die Adam Small-fees na verskeie skole te neem. Dit was ’n wonderlike geleentheid vir die skole in Pniel om te spog met hul muurkunswerke. Die leerders is ook vermaak deur die rymkletser en ambassadeur vir Afrikaans.com, HemelBesem.
Afrikaans.com se hande en voete by dié geleentheid was René Arendse. Volgens René is die Muurprojek veral spesiaal omdat dit ’n mate van hoop bied.
“Hierdie muurskildery sal nog jare lank ’n blyk van hoop en inspirasie bly…’n skildery wat die leerders, onderwysers en die gemeenskap sal herinner om uit te styg bo hulle omstandighede, groot te droom en trots te wees op hulle taal en identiteit,” sê sy.
Die geleentheid is ook moontlik gemaak deur samewerking met verskeie vennote insluitend Vriende van Afrikaans (’n afdeling van die ATKV), SASNEV (Suid-Afrikaanse Sentrum vir Nederlands en Vlaandere), die Moedertaalinisiatief-projek en ambassadeurs vir Afrikaans.com.

Uppe pulls out all the stops at DEKALB® Create Conference
The beginning of February was jam-packed as Uppe headed to Graceland (Secunda) and Nampo Park (near Bothaville) for the first ever DEKALB Create Conference. Once again, the Uppe team pulled out all the stops to ensure that the conference, which is one of the biggest in the agricultural industry in South Africa, was a major success!
Rubbing shoulders with the royalty of the agricultural industry … and EPOL and Molatek were there!
The Royal Show is Africa’s largest mixed agricultural show and was held from 25 May to 3 June 2018 at the Royal Agricultural Showgrounds in Pietermaritzburg.
EPOL … chicks and poultry farmers all over dig ‘em …
AVI Africa is the biggest poultry conference and exhibition in Africa. This year the event was held from 12 – 14 June 2018 at Emperors Palace, Gauteng. Delegates and suppliers / producers of the chick, egg (layer) and broiler industry attended the event. EPOL was one of the sponsors at the event and used this opportunity to inform delegates about the Epol products suitable for both the commercial and emerging markets. Uppe Marketing handled the exhibition on behalf of EPOL and was involved in setting up the stand and providing pull-ups, small gifts (mints in delegate bags) as well as the branding of the staircase leading to the exhibition hall.
All in a day’s work … Monsanto’s 2018 DEKALB cultivar launch
Once again it was all hands on deck with Monsanto’s 2018 DEKALB cultivar launch. Technology days and business breakfasts were set up in various locations across the country to introduce the cultivars to more than 2 000 farmers. As in previous years, Uppe was responsible for most of the arrangements – from décor through to technical. The project ran from 15 February – 13 April 2018 and was the responsibility of the very capable client services team of Kerry, Jenna, Bongi and Milanie, while Shaun was responsible for the cultivar video and presentation templates.
Nampo Harvest Day in Bothaville
Uppe Marketing has been involved in Nampo for more than 30 years and 2018 was no different. Nampo 2018 was held from 15 – 18 May. This year, Uppe was responsible for the Monsanto, Kynoch, RCL FOODS (Molatek & Epol), Yara and BASF stands … phew!
