QEC (Pty) Ltd has positioned itself to manufacture set-top boxes (STBs) locally. Established in 1994, QEC has spent several years growing and developing a successful electronics manufacturing company in South Africa.
Early in 2012, QEC's founder brought Lereko Investments on board. Lereko is a black-owned, black-led investments company operating in South Africa. The founding partners, the late Eric Molobi, Valli Moosa and Dr Popo Molefe had a vision of becoming effectively involved in broad-based empowerment in South African business. Shortly after its inception, Dr Lulu Gwagwa joined Lereko as Chief Operating Officer.
Another profound shareholder in QEC is Anitha Soni. Anitha Soni was awarded the much-coveted and prestigious "2002 Business Women of the Year BBQ Award". The BBQ Awards are a benchmark in the progress of empowered South Africa. It recognises achievements in Black Business and honours excellence in 12 Categories, amongst which is Businesswoman of the Year.
In April this year, QEC responded to the Department of Communications' (DoC's) call for information for the local manufacturing of DTT STB. QEC is excited for the road ahead as South Africa prepares for the migration of analogue broadcasting to digital terrestrial television (DTT).
