In an era where sustainability has become a non-negotiable in business practices, ExpoGuys has taken a pioneering step in the exhibition industry with the launch of its Sustainable Stand Grading System. The initiative reflects the company’s ongoing commitment to reducing its environmental footprint while setting a new standard for sustainable practices in stand-building and event services.
Defining Sustainability in the Exhibition Industry
Sustainability can vary significantly across industries, and what’s deemed sustainable for one may not apply to another. ExpoGuys Directors John Webb & Pat Cronning underscores this complexity:
“Sustainability is not a one-size-fits-all concept. For us, it means operating in a way that minimises environmental impact across every facet of our business. We aren’t perfect, but we are passionate about doing everything in our power to reduce our carbon footprint.”
ExpoGuys’ approach emphasises incremental, collective contributions to sustainability. By continuously refining processes, educating staff, and engaging clients, the company strives to make sustainability an integral part of its operations.
Sustainability Grading System: Raising Awareness and Accountability
The highlight of ExpoGuys’ sustainability efforts is its Sustainable Stand Grading System, an innovative way to evaluate and communicate the environmental impact of exhibition stands. Each stand is assessed across multiple criteria, including flooring, structure, lighting, branding, and furniture. Materials are graded based on their sustainability, with the overall stand receiving a Gold, Silver, or Platinum certification.
For instance:
Flooring options like carpet tiles and rubber mats, which can be reused for multiple events, receive the highest scores.
LED lighting and modular structures contribute significantly to higher sustainability grades.
“This system not only raises awareness among clients but also challenges our designers and sales staff to think sustainably throughout the design and build process,” Pooja Patel and Lindsay Milazi, two of our senior designers notes. “It’s not an exact science, but it’s a step in the right direction.”
The grading system also serves as an educational tool for clients, helping them understand the long-term cost-effectiveness and environmental benefits of sustainable stand choices. Clients receive a certificate with a scorecard detailing the sustainability elements of their stand, reinforcing the importance of eco-friendly practices.
Electrical Energy Efficiency and Climate-Friendly Rentals
ExpoGuys’ sustainability initiatives extend to its electrical and climate control hire services:
Energy-Efficient Lighting: The use of LED technology reduces electricity consumption at events.
Reusable Cables: Electrical equipment is designed for repeated use, minimizing waste.
Eco-Friendly Cooling and Heating: Low-consumption evaporative coolers and infrared heaters are offered as alternatives to traditional HVAC systems.
Solar: Our production and offices are 75% solar powered.
We will elaborate further on our efforts to make our business more sustainable.

“Fostering a robust environment in line with Renewed Hope Agenda”
The Nigerian Ministry of Solid Minerals Development has once again confirmed its commitment to the Nigeria Mining Week conference and expo with its official endorsement and pledge of support for the ninth edition that returns to Abuja from 18 to 20 November 2024.
Dr Mary A. Ogbe, Permanent Secretary in the Ministry of Solid Minerals Development says in a statement: “The Ministry recognizes the valuable platform [the event] provides across the mining ecosystem to exchange ideas, explore business opportunities, and forge partnerships that will further the frontiers of mining in Nigeria and across the continent.”
Nigeria Mining Week will gather mining pioneers, investors, regulators, suppliers and service providers in the region’s burgeoning extractive industry at the Abuja Continental Hotel in the Nigerian capital. The event is organised by the Miners Association of Nigeria (MAN) in collaboration with PwC Nigeria and Vuka Group while the Ministry of Solid Minerals Development is the official host.
Aligned with strategic goals
Dr Ogbe describes Nigeria Mining Week as an “esteemed gathering” that aligns with the Ministry’s strategic goals to enhance Nigeria’s mining sector as a key driver of economic growth, attract global mining investors and showcase the vast opportunities available within the mineral value chain.
She adds: “The Ministry is committed to fostering a robust environment that not only supports but also propels the mining industry in line with the Renewed Hope Agenda under the current administration.”
She also commended the event organisers, Vuka Group, for their “ongoing dedication to Nigeria Mining Week” and said she was anticipating that “this year’s conference will set a new precedent for innovation and collaboration in the mining sector.”
The theme of this year’s Nigeria Mining Week conference is “From the inside out: Building the mining sector to be the cornerstone of Nigeria’s economy.”
Industry support
Nigeria Mining Week has already signed up many of its longstanding partners and sponsors for the Abuja gathering in November. These include Titan Minerals Ltd as the diamond plus sponsors, Kursi Group and Sinogrand as diamond sponsors as well as Beak Consultants, Deeprock, Delta Group, Mantrac, Minelab and Rapidlink as gold sponsors.

Key role players in the battery manufacturing value chain from the private and public sectors are to converge in Kinshasa from 17–18 September for the Battery Metals Forum DRC-Africa.
Battery production for EVs and renewable energy storage relies on several key minerals and metals, including cobalt, copper, lithium, nickel, graphite, manganese, rare earths and the 3Ts (tin, tungsten and tantalum).
The DRC is the world’s leading producer of cobalt, accounting for over 60% of global supply, and the country is also an important copper supplier, along with neighbour Zambia, in the renowned Copperbelt.
“The global demand for battery minerals presents unpresented opportunities for the DRC to leverage its natural resources for economic development” says Samukelo Madlabane, Event Director at the VUKA Group, who are the organisers of the event.
He adds: “Under the theme of ‘Building a robust sustainable battery metals ecosystem in the DRC,’ Battery Metals Forum DRC-Africa is committed to positioning the country as the African hub for battery metals production and manufacture. It contributes to building an inclusive and equitable battery metals industry in the heart of Africa, underpinning broad-based sustainable growth, local beneficiation and socio-economic development.”

The high-level two-day gathering will provide valuable networking and matchmaking with senior local and international industry decision-makers. During the sessions, industry experts and trailblazers, who have successfully localised the processing of raw materials and created local manufacturing industries, will share their experiences and lessons learnt along the way. In addition, attendees can study the many opportunities within the DRC’s and Zambia’s battery manufacturing industries.
In particular, the sessions will focus on:
An overview of the feasibility study of the proposed DRC-Zambia Special Economic Zone
• Projects and best practices presentations – battery metals industry lead
• Energy transition: Energy supply for the battery metals industry
• Policies and regulations:
– Regional corporation

For over forty years, John Kaplan has enjoyed an illustrious career with Specialised Exhibitions, a division of Montgomery Group, starting back in the 80’s. His enthusiasm and commitment to his work have brought him much deserved success. Over the years, John has also generously shared his wealth of knowledge and expertise with others in the exhibitions industry, with many of those who have been fortunate enough to work with him also achieving success.
This fulfilling chapter of his life will formally finish at the end of June this year, when he embraces full retirement and the new adventures that this will bring.
Where it all began
With a Bachelor of Commerce degree and several years of business experience behind him and with a strong background in sales, John formed a publishing company in 1973 that specialised in trade journals. He was responsible for the advertising as well as the actual publishing of the journals, managing copy deadlines whilst also running the business. Publishing was his world during the 70’s. During this time he was approached by the Machine Tool Merchants’ Association, who knew him through publishing, to get involved with their Machine Tools exhibition. This was the start of the journey that would eventually lead him to Specialised Exhibitions. Throughout the 80’s, John worked with Specialised Exhibitions as a part-time sales consultant selling for the Machine Tools Africa exhibition and for their woodworking show at the time, WoodPro, whilst also still involved in publishing.
“I look back now and realise that it was the start of an opportunity of a lifetime,” says John enthusiastically, adding that he joined Specialised Exhibitions full time in 1993 as exhibition manager for Electra Mining Africa. “Management at the time recognised the experience I had gained over the years and my suitability for the position of exhibition manager for Electra Mining. It was an established show when I joined averaging around 20,000m² of exhibition space.”
John’s objective was to grow Electra Mining Africa. He followed a very simple formula: to get very close to all his exhibitors through frequent personal visits and to get involved with all the associations that were aligned with the show and strengthening those ties. “This was how I developed Electra Mining Africa. My focus was on repeat business – the more repeat business we had the better the show was going to be.”
“Of course, visitors were also extremely important. I was fortunate to have an excellent marketing team led by Gary Corin as marketing manager, who joined the company in 1996. The combined marketing, advertising and PR campaigns ensured that the right quality and quantity of visitors came to the show.”
John was instrumental in building relationships with stakeholders from all over the world in the mining, electrical, civil engineering and industrial fields. To promote Electra Mining Africa, he visited various international shows including the Australian mining show and the South American mining show, looking to attract exhibitors and visitors. The strategy worked with international exhibitors booking for the show and attracting a lot of international visitors, especially from the big mining companies from South America and Australia.
Probably the biggest highlight of Electra Mining Africa was in 1996 when then President Nelson Mandela accepted an invitation to officially open the show. “We aimed high,” smiles John. “We reached out through the connections we had to the presidency and we were thrilled when he said yes! I was honoured to have the opportunity to meet him.”
Appointment as Managing Director
During his time as exhibition manager, John was appointed as a director for Specialised Exhibitions. Then, in 2001, he took up the position of Managing Director of the company.
One of John’s many priorities in his role as MD was to ensure the continued growth of Electra Mining Africa. Following discussions with the then Department of Minerals and Energy, it was agreed to incorporate government’s ‘Mining Week’ with Electra Mining in the early 2000’s. Conferences and workshops ran alongside Electra Mining during the week of the show, whilst communication campaigns promoted Mining Week in the media. This heightened the visibility and awareness of Electra Mining. Phumzile Mlambo-Ngcuka, the then South African Minister of Minerals and Energy, opened the show in 2002 and 2004.
Another first for Electra Mining Africa was the Inward Buying Mission organised by John and his team in association with the SA Capital Equipment Export Council (SACEEC), a public private partnership between the South African Department of Trade, Industry and Competition and the capital equipment and related services industries. Over 50 major buyers from around the globe attended the show.
But it wasn’t all plain sailing when John took over as MD. One of the biggest challenges was when the exhibition venue used by Electra Mining Africa went into liquidation. The Johannesburg Expo Centre was the only suitable venue for the show, so if that was lost, Electra Mining would face severe difficulties. “It was a tense time,” says John. “Montgomery Group stepped in and a decision was made and an agreement reached for the Expo Centre to be acquired in 2004 by a consortium of Montgomery Group and a local investor. It was a decision that ensured Electra Mining Africa’s future,” explains John. Electra Mining Africa celebrated 50 years of success in 2022.
Expanding the business
The long-term objective of the company was to expand the business with more exhibitions. But the most difficult part of the job was to launch a new exhibition. “When we had the opportunity to buy an existing exhibition company with its portfolio of successful exhibitions, it was an easy decision to make. With Specialised Exhibitions being in a stable and financially sound position, we were able to go ahead,” says John. “It was exciting to oversee the purchase of Exhibitions for Africa in 2007 and it led to Specialised Exhibitions’ big expansion.”
John used his years of experience gained through running his own business in his role as MD. He treated the business as his own business, applying the same principles, watching every cent that was spent. Fortunately, he says, he had staff who thought the same way.
“I was very fortunate to have a good team. They were stable, very loyal supporters of Specialised Exhibitions. I always had an open door policy. I listened to their views. Gave them guidance where needed and encouraged them in their personal development. We worked together as a team, each with the same end goal in mind. It was the same with our suppliers.”
“Developing good people skills helped me in my career. I got on well with people and had good relationships with customers, staff and suppliers, as well as the associations and media. Being able to read people, to understand their needs, and to have empathy also helped in building relationships.”
John became the Group Managing Director and CEO of Specialised Exhibitions in 2010, before becoming the Chairperson in 2011 when Gary Corin took over the position of MD. John remained intrinsically involved with Specialised Exhibitions and Montgomery Group, committed to ensuring the long-term success of the business.
Highlights of the past 40 years
“Every year was a highlight,” was the answer given by John when asked what the highlights were of his four decades in the exhibition industry. “I was energised by the vibrant and dynamic nature of the business. Exhibitions are fascinating. They are ever changing. It’s an industry that doesn’t stand still for a minute. Every exhibition has to be treated as a new launch. Consideration has to always be given to the needs of exhibitors who want a decent return on their investment, and visitors who invest their time in attending the show.”
“I really enjoyed watching Electra Mining Africa grow and also watching the companies who had exhibited at Electra Mining grow. They came to the show and found new agencies, got new orders, and they grew, and they came back to exhibit again and again. It was also exciting to see the growth of Propak Africa and the launch of the regional show, Propak Cape, which was launched in the early 2000’s, as well as the growing success of other exhibitions within our portfolio.”
“I truly value all the friends that I’ve made during my time with Specialised Exhibitions, internationally and locally. From staff to suppliers, to exhibitors and to all of the associations. Attending the UFI conferences was also a big highlight as it was an opportunity to meet all the international owners of venues and exhibitions, many of whom became good colleagues.”
And what would life be without a life outside of work!
Having lived and worked in Johannesburg for many years, John is now settled permanently in Knysna. He is a dedicated family man and enjoys his regular visits with his grandchildren in Cape Town, and, as often as he can, his visits to his daughter and grandchildren in Australia.
He has always been a dedicated fitness fanatic. When working at the Specialised Exhibitions offices he went to the gym for a workout every lunchtime. “Going to gym during lunchtime got me ready for the next session of the day – it relaxed me and took away the stress and frustration,” he laughed. He continues to go to gym regularly to keep fit. John was also very keen on karate but, having achieved his brown belt, was robbed of the opportunity of getting his black belt when the sensei that he was training with left for Australia. He also loves fishing and Knysna provides great opportunities to satisfy this pastime. Of course, you can’t talk about sport without mentioning rugby. John is an avid Western Cape rugby supporter!
The past four decades have been filled with an exciting career in the exhilarating world of exhibitions, the building of life-long friendships, relaxing days full of sport and leisure activities, and spending time with a beautiful family that brings him much joy and happiness.
John will be missed. But his friendships with many of us at Specialised Exhibitions and Montgomery Group will continue long into this exciting next chapter of his life.
