CELL C ‘WIN A BAKKIE’ COMPETITIO­N WINNERS ANNOUNCED

-

IT’S the New Year, bringing with it plenty of new luck, new beginnings, and new hopes. After receiving hundreds of millions of entries to the Cell C Change Your Summer Change Your World, ‘Win a Bakkie’ competitio­n, 20 winners of the brand new Nissan NP200 utility bakkies have been drawn. The aim of the competitio­n was to enhance ambitious entreprene­urial dreams and create much needed business opportunit­ies. After a year like 2020, which saw massive job losses and salary cuts due to the pandemic, Cell C realised the huge potential to encourage and support new business creation and entreprene­urship. Recognisin­g the potential for new business creation and entreprene­urship, Cell C decided to execute a Summer campaign that would give away prizes to help customers start afresh in 2021, the prizes included utility bakkies, laptops, Smartphone devices and shopping vouchers to name a few.

“No one can be in any doubt that 2020 was one of the most trying times in South Africa’s history. With our Summer campaign, Cell C hopes to inject joy back into South Africa and lift the country after the darkest of winters.” says Simo Mkhize, Cell C’s Chief Commercial Officer.

Here is what some of the bakkie winners have to say:

Sibusiso Mbambo from Empangeni, KZN. He says, “I was very excited to receive the call to say I’d won but at first I didn’t believe it. I am self-employed and will use the bakkie to make deliveries for my tuck shop business and to deliver supplies for my produce business.”

Chandre Brandt from Worcester in the Western Cape. She says, “I was amazed when I got the call. At first I thought it was a prank but when I saw the ads on TV and via SMS I knew that this is real. I’m totally overwhelme­d. Thank you Cell C.”

Christo Williams, from Ceres in the Western Cape. He says, “This bakkie came to me just in time. The car that I am currently driving was giving me a lot of problems. Thank you Cell C. I plan to continue playing Win and Spin as it has changed my life."

Weinrich De Ruiter from Nelspruit says, “I was in total disbelief when I received the call. I have a Top up contract and I bought airtime that qualified me to play Win and Spin. My plan is to sell this bakkie and buy a bigger one to accommodat­e my family of five."

Raihaan Van Boom from Cape Town says, “I am so excited about winning. I will use the bakkie for work purposes.”

Cell C introduced a new ‘Spin & Win’ game to make the Summer campaign more engaging for customers.
