On 10 September 2026, CaterWize took part in the OK Franchise Tradeshow, at Grand West in Cape Town.

As a preferred supplier to OK for ice cream and slush machines, we were pleased to be part of the event and to see our equipment featured in the concept store.

A place in the concept store

A highlight of the day was seeing our ice cream and slush machines included in the OK concept store display. The setting showcased the equipment as part of a retail environment, giving visitors a look at how these machines could fit into a store’s offering.

For our team, it was a proud moment to see CaterWize equipment represented beyond our own stand and within the wider store concept.

The tradeshow was also an opportunity to meet visitors at our stand and put faces to the CaterWize team behind the equipment.

Thank you to the OK Franchise team for organising the event and to everyone who stopped by. We look forward to continuing to support OK stores with ice cream and slush equipment.

Thank you to the OK Franchise team for bringing everyone together, and to all the suppliers who took part. It was great to be alongside businesses that each contribute something different to the OK store offering.

Events like these help strengthen the relationships between suppliers and retailers, supporting OK stores and the communities they serve.
