Bombela CEO Recognized as Top Rail Woman
The French South African Chamber of Commerce and Industry (FSACCI) is proud to celebrate the achievements of our platinum member, Bombela Operating Company (Pty) Ltd. In a recent interview with eNCA, Bombela CEO Nthabiseng Kubheka reflected on her recognition by the International Railway Journal as one of the top 15 women in the global rail industry, an achievement that resonated strongly during South Africa's recent #WomensMonth.
Leading by Example
This prestigious accolade aligns perfectly with the theme of #WomensMonth: "Celebrating 30 Years of Freedom Towards Women's Development."
