DriveTech BA5
Monday 23 March 2009.
 |
Chamber Members and other invited guests gathered together for
a fantastic BA5 event,
hosted at DRIVETECH based at Longbush.
Brian and Jackie Frew really took the opportunity to showcase their
Driver Training operation in fine style.
|
 |
The BBQ was perfect for a sparkling fine late summer get
together, with most of the goodies on offer actually coming from
the Frews’ beef farm operation hosting was Fantastic. |
A group of about 35 people heard of the various courses and
driver endorsements that DriveTech offer, not just to business and
industry, but individuals too.
DriveTech staff were on hand to show visitors around the recently
expanded training faciltities and Brian gave some details about
their businesses move into Otago, with the establishment of an
operation based at Mosgiel.
Hand in hand with the training, the Frews found that they had
become a convenient referral service for companies who may be
seeking drivers for a particular operation.
This has developed into an in-house employment division. A great
time and money saver for employers seeking staff. |
|
An interesting aspect of DriveTechs business philosophy, is the
introduction some time ago, of the “About U” bus service.
This is a pick up and drop off service for disabled people in the
community and is almost entirely funded by DriveTech
itself.
 |
Brian and Jackie feel that the service is an easy and valuable
way of the Company giving something back to the community. As Brian
said on the night, for the small price of some diesel, it‘s a good
feeling to be able to offer this sector of our community some more
independance. |
If you couldn’t make it to the DriveTech BA5 function, take a
look at their website at www.drivetech.co.nz or feel free
to phone for a chat, or even call in.
The Frews will be more than happy to put the kettle on for a
chat.
Thanks again Jackie and Brian. A great BA5 event.
