RAM Hand-to-Hand Couriers™
Friday, 09 September 2005
RAM Hand-to-Hand Couriers has announced that Karl Socikwa has been appointed as a non-executive Director on the RAM Hand-to-Hand Couriers board with immediate effect.

Socikwa is CEO of Transtel and Chairman of the steering committee of SA’s soon-to-be-launched second fixed-line telecommunications operator.

RAM Hand-to-Hand Couriers Joint Managing Director, David Lazarus, has announced the appointment of Karl Socikwa as non-executive Director and says that RAM directors and the Lazarus family are pleased to welcome Socikwa on board. RAM Hand-to-Hand Couriers has effected this appointment as part of an overall strategy to address growth, empowerment and business transformation at RAM. Socikwa brings to the board inimitable insight and corporate expertise, and it was important for us to appoint a business person of Socikwa’s calibre who will not only act as a non-executive Director, but will assist us in growing RAM Hand-to-Hand Couriers to be South Africa’s premier empowered specialised courier business,” says Lazarus.

Socikwa, a lawyer, has been with the Transnet Group for over 10 years. 'This is a new and exciting field of involvement for me. I am impressed with what the Lazarus family has built in a reasonably short period of time. I look forward to adding impetus to the growth plans of the business', comments Socikwa.

RAM Hand-to-Hand Couriers was established in 1988 by the Lazarus family and has enjoyed considerable growth from a niche courier business that specialised in forwarding and couriering valuable cargo, to one of the largest independent courier operators in South Africa which offers its clients a full range of day-to-day courier services.
