SAIA BOARD MEMBERS

Announcing New Board Members 2023 - 2025

The auction industry faces challenges with everchanging disruptions, frustrations and changes to the way we do business and handle auctions, but with the guidance, support and professionalism of our board, we were able rise above and overcome these challenges.

We would like to take the opportunity to thank our re-elected members for their dedication, effort and industry expertise: John Cowing, Phillip Powell, Nico Maree, Jacques Van Der Linde, Martin Dibowitz, Marc Roberts, Lufuno Ramoyada, Clive Lazarus, Chris Lotter, Charles Rwizi, Disa Smuts, Tsitso Setai, Gift Ngwenya and Sipho Nzuza.

The South African Institute of Auctioneers is pleased to announce the addition of three new members to the Board: Joff Van Reenen, Glory Mkhonza and Barney Jacobson. We are excited to welcome these talented individuals and we believe that their unique backgrounds and diverse experience will make them a great asset to the SAIA Board.

We would like to thank our outgoing board member Bill Hartard for the tremendous dedication and unforgettable impact towards the auction industry and his tenure, and wish him all of the best for their future endeavours. The auction industry will be forever thankful.
