In 2001 their youngest son, Juan Venter, matriculated and joined the company working as a driver and fitter. In 2003 the company was reregistered under Juan’s name, and moved to new premises. During the following two years, the company underwent a severe re-structural process, implementing new systems and ways of thinking.

With Juan in charge of management, the company experienced steady, sustainable growth and a certainty for the future of the company was achieved. By the end of 2008, the company had grown from its original three employees and two vehicles to almost thirty employees and eight vehicles. In 2009, the company relocated to bigger premises in Kya Sands. Since that time, the company has continued to grow at a rapid rate in all aspects of the business.

With over forty employees and 18 vehicles, the business will once again relocate to its own premises in Cosmo Business Park. Through all the changes and growth, the company has experienced, the original three employees that started SafetyGrip is still a part of the business. While the company has matured and expanded in its industry and experimented with other areas of interest, the principle of a family-owned and operated business are still at the core of its success.
