Our Mission and Vision

Our ultimate goal is to leverage our resources within these businesses to improve our community. Contributing meaningfully to communities within the Eastern Cape lies at the heart of who we are. Giving back is intrinsically tied to everything we do and aim to do in our business going forward.

Our vision is to expand on a variety of opportunities that have come our way as the result of strategic partnerships and longstanding business relationships. Our core focus is IT, food and beverage, as well as the stationery sector.

Our History

Page Group CEO, Darrel Eberhardt, began from humble beginnings in Gonubie, East London in 2000.  In these early years, the business had a small team which primarily sold photocopiers to the East London and surrounding community.  Darrel had a vision to grow the business and spent the next 20 years refining  the business’ core offering to include IT infrastructure solutions to both public and private sectors in the Eastern Cape, Gauteng, Northern Cape and KwaZulu Natal regions.

Over the years,  he has invested in several businesses in the restaurant industry, and these have grown from strength-to-strength.

Darrel started his career in the stationery business over 25 years ago, which still runs deep in his veins, having owned a major stationery business in East London for over 8 years. The business has now evolved into a new stationery brand which includes a more bespoke product offering. Gussie’s Gifting & Stationery is dedicated to Darrel’s late wife Gussie Eberhardt. Gussie dedicated her life to helping others and through this business, her legacy and good works live on.
