Clover to resume operations at Lichtenburg plant

Reading Time: 3 minutes

Clover is in the process of resuming some of its operations at the Lichtenburg plant, in the North West.

This is after the consumer goods and beverages company closed the factory and relocated to KwaZulu-Natal in 2021. Some former workers have now been offered short-term re-employment, but some former employees say they know nothing of these new developments.

“I do not think it is a good idea for the management of Clover to come and reopen the factory without telling the municipality, without announcing it or doing it the right way.”

Meanwhile, North West Premier Bushy Maape says the provincial government will come up with other means to attract investors to Lichtenburg.

“We regret the fact that clover had to disinvest but we are looking forward. We are doing certain things to ensure that other investors do come back to Lichtenburg.”
