Pearl Awards 2024: Century 21 South Africa's top estate agents to be crowned in Hoedspruit

The much-anticipated Century 21 Pearl Awards 2024 is set to take place between 18-20 September at the spectacular Radisson Safari Hotel in Hoedspruit. This prestigious event, organised by Century 21 South Africa, celebrates the exceptional achievements of its top-performing real estate agents.

The event of the year

According to Thireshni Sanasy, National Head of Marketing, the Pearl Awards are the pinnacle of recognition within Century 21 South Africa. "It celebrates the hard work and achievements of our property practitioners, highlighting the exceptional performances and dedication that fuel our success as a brand," she says. 

While the event brings together the best in the industry, it goes beyond simply applauding past accomplishments. "The Pearl Awards also inspires excellence for the future," adds Sanasy. "It serves as a motivational cornerstone for our entire network to see what can be achieved with some elbow grease and determination."

All eyes on Hoedspruit

Attendees can expect a memorable experience filled with elegant dining, exciting team-building activities, award ceremonies, insightful talks, and ample opportunities for networking in a stunning wilderness setting.

This year, Hoedspruit will provide a unique and authentic backdrop for the awards that align with Century 21 South Africa's bold spirit of adventure and discovery. "By hosting the event in Hoedspruit, we wanted to step away from the usual urban settings and immerse our attendees in a more natural, serene environment," shares Sanasy. 

Sanasy believes Hoedspruit's proximity to wildlife and its breathtaking landscapes will offer the perfect location to not only celebrate success but also allow attendees to connect with nature, reflect, and find inspiration in the wild beauty that the area is famous for.

In keeping with the area's rustic charm, the theme is "All Things Safari". Sanasy says this will be woven into every aspect of the event, from the décor to the activities and even the attire. "From rustic, bush-inspired décor at the gala dinner to a morning safari drive, our goal is to give attendees a true safari adventure while celebrating their achievements," highlights Sanasy. "The theme isn't just a visual element; it's about embodying the spirit of exploration and resilience that defines the real estate profession."

An exciting itinerary on the cards

In true SMARTER. BOLDER. FASTER.™ spirit, the event promises to be an unforgettable experience, starting with a warm welcome dinner, followed by a scenic safari game drive in the Kruger National Park. Sanasy believes the highlight for many will be the Pearl Awards Gala Dinner where cream-of-the-crop property practitioners will be recognised for their achievements. The company has also included opportunities for team-building and business engagement, ensuring that there's a balance of celebration, networking, and professional development throughout the event.

Eager attendees counting down the clock will likely be wondering about the intriguing team-building exercise planned. "Without giving too much away, the team-building event will be a truly unique experience, designed to reflect the challenges and rewards of both the wild and the world of real estate.

"It's going to be interactive and will require attendees to work together, mirroring the collaboration and teamwork that drive our success at Century 21 South Africa. Expect something exciting, competitive, and reflective of the safari theme - it will definitely leave lasting memories," shares Sanasy.
