Durban-based design and promotions agency, Paton Tupper Associates, has sold an equal shareholding in the business to Hixonia Nyasulu who has also been appointed to the Board as a Director, effective 1 March 2003.
Hixonia Nyasulu, who has been ranked the 13th most influential black director on the JSE and one of only 4 women on the list, is the ideal person to complement Paton Tupper's 8 member Management Team. Hixonia sits on the boards of Nedcor, AECI, Tongaat-Hulett, Anglo Platinum Limited, Anglovaal Industries Limited and the Development Bank of Southern Africa.
"Not only is Hixonia incredibly well-connected," says PTA Managing Director Susan Rae Fox, "but she also offers a wealth of management expertise. What's more, as head of the research company 'TH Nyasulu and Associates,' Hixonia brings considerable experience in strategic market planning, research and communications to our mix."
