Shorrock Automation has proudly supported and exhibited at the Africa Automation Technology Fair (AATF) for many years. It remains one of the most important events on our calendar.

AATF provides an excellent platform for companies like ours to showcase the latest automation technologies, innovations, and industrial solutions to the South African market. It also attracts visitors from neighbouring African countries and island states.

One of the greatest strengths of AATF is that it brings multiple industries together under one roof. Manufacturers, utilities, system integrators, machine builders, engineers, and technology providers can connect, exchange ideas, and explore practical solutions to the challenges faced by modern industry.

AATF continues to play an important role in promoting automation, innovation, and collaboration within African industry. We look forward to continuing our support of this important event for many years to come.” — Chris Cronje, Shorrock Automation
