Featured Supplier of the Week: OMV – Building a Stronger Southern Africa

This week, we're delighted to feature OMV as our Featured Supplier of the Week. OMV stands as a leading supplier of essential construction materials in Southern Africa, providing aggregates, ready-mix concrete, gypsum-based products, and specialised industrial minerals. Their commitment to hands-on management and strong employee relations forms the bedrock of their success.

Humble Beginnings

From humble beginnings in 1952, when Klaas Goudriaan began mining limestone in the Henneman area of the Free State, OMV has grown into a market leader. This impressive journey reflects their dedication to quality and service. Today, OMV comprises four distinct divisions, each playing a crucial role in serving the ready-mix, aggregates, industrial minerals, and gypsum industries across Southern Africa.

Part of the Raubex Group

The 2014 acquisition of OMV by Raubex marked a significant turning point, unlocking substantial growth opportunities. OMV has seamlessly integrated into the Raubex group, demonstrating a shared vision of sustainable business practices. Through continuous investment in both its people and equipment, OMV has experienced exponential growth while maintaining a strong focus on responsible operations within local communities.

Commitment to Excellence

They understand the vital role they play in the development and progress of the region and are committed to delivering excellence in every aspect of their business. We're proud to showcase OMV as a company that is truly building a stronger Southern Africa.
