Our Johannesburg team proudly hosted a Blood Donation morning, bringing colleagues together in support of a life-saving cause. Every donation has the potential to make a meaningful difference, and we are grateful to everyone who rolled up their sleeves and donated.

Thank you to all who participated and helped make the morning a success. Together, we're giving hope and making a positive impact in our community.

Casual Day at S**O!

We swapped the workwear for something a little more relaxed and joined in on Casual Day as a team!

It was a great excuse to have some fun, show off our casual style and, most importantly, support a good cause.

Because even when we’re keeping it casual, we’re still bringing the S**O spirit! 😎

This Arbor Week, our S**O branches found meaningful ways to give back to both our people and the communities around us.

Some of our branches chose to plant citrus trees at their premises, creating something that will grow alongside us for years to come. Not only do trees contribute to a healthier environment, but these citrus trees will one day provide fresh fruit for our staff to enjoy and share.

Our Durban branch took this initiative even further by planting much-needed trees at a local school in their community. These weren't just any trees, they were specifically requested by the school, making the initiative even more meaningful.

Knowing that these trees will grow with the children, provide shade, beautify their surroundings and contribute to a greener future makes this gesture particularly special.

At S**O, sustainability is about more than simply reducing our environmental impact. It's about giving back, growing together and planting seeds for a better future, for our people, our communities and the generations to come.
