With the opening of their new showroom
Romeo Kitchens has launched their
innovative and exclusive Verditi brand for
the most discerning high-end market. Verditi
takes quality, design and luxury to an even
higher level with their brand slogan “No
Compromises”. As Johannesburg based
brand manager – Morne van der Merwe
– says, the Verditi brand has a number of
exclusive material options they can use
which include tempered glass fronted fronts,
high gloss lacquer that shouts out quality,
porcelain (that can be used on both the
doors and tops) and exotic wood veneers.
Verditi truly does “not compromise” anywhere
and uses the exclusive Blum Legrabox and
Ambialine drawer system, soft-close Blum
hinges, internal fittings from Kessebohmer,
special bins from Hailo and Ninka, under
mount sinks from well know luxury German
brand Blanco and other top brands. Units are
truly designed with the customer in mind and
everything about the customer, their family
and their lifestyle is taken into account to
come up with a design that will transform
their kitchen into a truly functional, beautiful
space.

INTERIOR DESIGN

The result is that Verditi kitchens have a
modern, sleek and timeless appeal with
echoes of the best of Italian design. The
Verditi range is custom manufactured in
South Africa to the highest international
standards according to Romeo’s design
specifications. It’s then installed by
Romeo’s highly skilled and dedicated team
with unwavering attention to the smallest
details. Verditi is truly the Rolls Royce range
of kitchens.

Romeo also has just managed to secure
the exclusive agencies for the supply of
entrance doors, internal doors and security
doors from the Italian companies Garofoli
and Oikos which are renowned for their
innovative designs and superlative quality.
Romeo is excited by this development
as they believe that these 2 brands fit
perfectly into their vision for the future.
Upmarket home owners in the future will
not accept the quality that they did in the
past and these doors will work beautifully
in these up-market homes, taking the final
finish to a new level.

Romeo opened their first Harare showroom,
outside of Msasa, in 2012 at Sam Levy’s
Village. This year they moved that showroom
from Sam Levy’s to the new prestigious
Village Walk. The official launch of the
superb new showroom was held on 25th
of July and was attended Romeo’s past
customers, future prospective customers,
as well as leading designers, architects and
contractors.

it will save the country valuable forex from importing raw steel and
has the potential to export finished products to the region. After the
demise of local company Ziscosteel most steel manufactures were
dependant on importing raw materials for steel production. However,
Steel Brands has had the vision to utilise recycled steel to create new
and valuable products.

Recycling old or scrap steel allows Steel Brands to clean up the
environment by removing waste and creating new products without
the environmental degradation involved in mining and the related
industries. Steel production is traditionally extremely damaging to the
environment as well as being labour and capital intensive. By using
recycled material the new plant also helps to create income for scrap
metal dealers. Scrap metal dealers are assured of an equitable price
for scrap metal which they deliver to the plant, providing income
for the traders while cutting costs usually involved in raw material
procurement and transport costs.

INDUSTRIAL PROFILE

The huge warehouse/factory structure was built by Grid
Transmission and is approximately 130m x 40m. The majority
of the machinery used was imported from India and specialist
technicians came into the country to help set up the plant as well
as training local staff to operate and maintain the equipment.
Local staff will receive up to three years of specialised training
from their Indian counterparts who have travelled the world
setting up similar factories. Steel Brands has even constructed
special accommodation for their ex-pat staff on site to make
easier for them to deal with transport and housing. So it’s much
more convenient for staff to be on site sleeping during the day
and working at night.
The factory tends to focus their production during off-peak
hours – at night time – when Zesa is less in demand and costs
are significantly reduced. Temperatures in the furnaces reach
up to 1600 degrees so their demand for electricity is very high.
Subsequently they have a dedicated sub-station and a dedicated
ZESA supply line.
New machinery is expected to be imported and operational by
July/August this year which will help reduce operational costs
and make the plant more viable. This major investment in both
equipment and staff shows an optimistic outlook for Zimbabwe’s
economic future.
