View from the Board: Innovation. Excellence. Responsibility.
Congratulations seems to be a theme of this edition of The Global Record with exciting developments that touch all areas of our business. One of the rewarding features of being a truly global company is that someone, somewhere is making their mark on our clients through innovation, excellent service, risk avoidance, kindness or sheer hard work.
I had the pleasure of attending the opening of our newly-constructed warehouse and office complex in Jakarta and meeting the loyal staff who make that place tick. It has taken many years of excellence and endeavour to earn this major investment, which is now a flagship RM facility in–yet another example of long-term planning through a robust property investment strategy.
The RoSPA award in the UK & Ireland highlights the ever diligent attention to Health & Safety (H&S) issues in the workplace, and the value of sharing best practice throughout all of our worldwide locations. In the same way that H&S is part of the DNA of a company like Crown, I'm sure our readers will enjoy the Corporate Social Responsibility activities which strongly demonstrate our commitment to positively impacting the communities we serve. It starts at the top, with our Chairman fully involved and leading by example.
Innovation in Australia and our Hong Kong headquarters bring higher-technology solutions to the market, whilst our Crown network coverage expands through two very recent acquisitions in South Africa and Japan.
