Seven businessmen were memorialised by iconic global whisky brand Glenmorangie.
SPRUITVIEW – SUCCESSFUL East Rand businessman, Bafana Nkosi was recently selected as one of seven businessmen who were memorialised by iconic global whisky brand Glenmorangie.
Each nominee was presented with a bespoke portrait shot at the prestigious Rand Club, by renowned photographer Tim Hulme.
Glenmorangie is meticulously crafted by the famous Men of Tain to a level described as ‘unnecessarily well made’ and takes great pride in the extra lengths to which it goes to create some of the world’s most sought-after single malt Scotch whiskies.
Seven taverns and owners in the Gauteng area that embodied the ‘unnecessarily well made’ spirit were selected for this prestigious honour.
Glenmorangie Marketing Manager Sean Olivier said, “These one of a kind portraits are acknowledgement that the tavern owners have elevated their businesses above the competition, and a celebration of their respected standing in the community. We have been afforded the opportunity to work with outstanding entrepreneurs on this project which embodies the spirit of Glenmorangie.”
The Village Café, also popularly known as the White House Lounge in Spruitview was established by Bafana Nkosi who, like most young men, aspired to be a top businessman in his community.
The White House Lounge was recently revamped, transforming it into the premier night spot on the East Rand, bringing friends together to enjoy good company, share business stories and enjoy the smooth taste of Glenmorangie single malt whisky Bafana’s preferred drink after a long day of networking.
Bafana, who is also a qualified medical practitioner has exceptional attention to detail and a commitment to always improving the experience he provides his customers, making him an obvious choice for Glenmorangie.
“Being one of South Africa’s ‘unnecessarily well made’ top single malt whiskies , it is only fitting that the brand is associated with and celebrates the top tavern owners who go the extra mile in Gauteng.
“This is a prestigious acknowledgement not only for the tavern owner, but for the community,” concludes Olivier.
