Standard Bank, South Africa Modernising SDL Services with Automated Deposit Lockers Standard Bank is a leading financial services organisation with a 150­-year history in South Africa and over 1,200 branches across Africa. The Challenge Standard Bank wanted to modernise its traditional safe deposit locker service to make it more cost-efficient. The Solution Standard Bank installed Gunnebo's SafeStore Auto - a fully automated safe deposit locker (SDL) solution. Initial installations were made at three branches before the bank's flagship branch in Sandton, Johannesburg was upgraded. In Sandton, 6,000 lockers are housed in the basement vault. Customers access their locker contents using a terminal on the bank's ground floor. The Benefits SafeStore Auto goes hand in hand with Standard Bank's vision of more modern self-service branches. The self-service terminal has reduced operating costs and allows clients to access their lockers around the clock, improving customer satisfaction. "One major benefit is the reduction in operating costs. We are able to use prime office space more effectively and automated processes mean less staff time is required."

Louis XIII Cognac, France Protecting the Movie You Will Never See Louis XIII Cognac, one of the world’s most prestigious spirits brands, launched a highly creative campaign in 2015 entitled ‘100 Years – The Movie You Will Never See’. Exclusive Event Inspired by the century of careful craftsmanship and patience it takes to create each decanter of Louis XIII Cognac, a film was made starring actor John Malkovich and directed by Robert Rodriguez which will not be released until 2115. One thousand guests from around the world received an exclusive invitation for their descendants to attend the premiere in a century’s time. Unique Fichet-Bauche Safe To ensure that the film itself remains unseen until that date, it has been placed in a state-of-the-art Fichet-Bauche safe, chosen by Louis XIII due to the brand’s reputation as a worldrenowned, high-end label. The one-of-a-kind safe is fully dressed in black leather and built with an armoured glass door, programmed to unlock in exactly 100 years. During 2016, the safe is being taken on a year-long world tour by Louis XIII to promote its campaign, before returning to its permanent home in the French city of Cognac. “Through its Fichet-Bauche brand, Gunnebo has created an exceptional product in total harmony with Louis XIII’s excellence, guaranteeing us an image of exclusivity and elegance.” Ludovic du Plessis, Global Executive Director of Louis XIII Cognac © 2021 All rights reserved
