BEE COMPLIANCE

VWV is a privately-owned unencumbered BEE company. In October 2009 we were awarded a Level - 3 Contributor status based on our equity ownership,
enterprise development and shareholding. In achieving this status we restructured the set-up and voting rights of the board and executive committee;
appointed a non-executive board director; engaged in public-private partnerships; created a new employment equity plan as well as a comprehensive
training program for all employees.

At VWV we firmly believe that empowerment is a journey and not simply a certification status. For this reason we are currently evaluating our procurement
processes and supplier certification. We are also investing in CSI programmes in a focused effort to become a Level 2 contributor.
