Pele: Setswana - first or forward; a doing word
As the name we’ve chosen for ourselves, the word ‘pele’ holds meaning for the central value of the Group, which is leadership. Our founders’ shared passion to fast-forward development in Africa and the world, is matched with the belief in the importance of personal agency. We know that the power lies in you, in all of us, to create the best possible future for ourselves. This is why our founders: Boipelo Moloabi, Thapelo Motlogeloa, Gqi Raoleka, Fumani Mthembi and Obakeng Moloabi lead by example by being full-time employees within The Group’s various subsidiaries.
