UNIDO 2010 – First Audit
20 000
“In a recent survey, completed
by the United Nations Industrial Development
Organisation (Unido), Fabrinox showed its competency by emerging as a world class
company.
15 000
The benchmark not only rated companies in terms of hard output, but also evaluated the
internal processes and people management within the company.
Fabrinox has proven
5 000 itself to be a truly global competitor and surely should be ranked as a
solid example for organisations in South Africa trying to enter and compete in a very tough
world market.”
