In 1999 Eclectic Facilitators (Pty) Ltd was brought to life through drive and vision. MD Mandy Scanlen having worked in Sport Licensing and sponsorship for 7 years felt that it was time to offer the corporate world a solution orientated Event Company. It was time to create events where a brand’s personality and image was considered in the planning and execution of the event. An Event is no longer simply an excuse to party but a serious marketing tool.
Mandy Scanlen was the licensing manager of Rugby World Cup 1995, Atlanta Olympic Games 1996, Cricket World Cup 1999 and South African Rugby Football Union. Mandy consulted on major Soccer brands including Crystal Palace and commuted to the United Kingdom from 1998 till 1999 as a consultant to the Sport Management Group International. In September 1999 Mandy took the leap and started the business she dreamed of.
