Celebrating women in security

29 July 2019 News & Events

Regal Distributors SA has embarked on an initiative to recognise, celebrate and encourage women to keep pushing boundaries.

In an industry that is male dominated, women have been making strides in showing their commitment, passion and contribution to the security industry. Women managers, business owners, industry experts and influencers each continuously play an essential role in adding value to product innovation, manufacturing, distribution, training and after-sales support.

“Regal has crossed the Rubicon in women empowerment, setting new standards in the industry. The leadership's vision is to guard the value that women contribute to the development of the company and encourage more women to play an active role in all our operations," says Kyri Michael, chief operating officer of Regal Distributors SA.

As August is Women’s Month, Regal will dedicate all communication channels to profiling a range of women in the industry who display passion and are resilient as they manage their businesses, run departments and develop solutions that inevitably protect South Africa’s citizens and economic assets.

The campaign commences on the 1st of August 2019 and 31 exceptional women will share their views and experiences within the industry. From the 1st to the 23rd of August anyone who follows Regal on social media platforms or visits the website during this period will get the opportunity to nominate any other women in the electronic security industry that they believe is a game changer.

Regal also sees this campaign as an opportunity to encourage all women of any age, race or creed to join the industry.
