Alvern

49 Years ago the innovation and drive of three young entrepreneurs lead to the birth of a major industry player.

Alvern cables is a privately owned business that manufactures a variety of low to medium voltage electrical cables for domestic and industrial use. The company was established in 1967 essentially to manufacture and supply cables to its then parent company S.A Signals. The three individuals mentioned at the outset, A.E Hendey, V. Higham and P.G Wiggin were all contracted to the railways as electricians in the signalling division. Difficult supply and poor quality of cables led them to manufacture their own range which grew rapidly until the inevitable happened and the signalling side was taken over by the Cable section. Today Alvern Cables is one of the leading cable manufacturers in South Africa and the largest privately owned operation in the industry.
