About
Ms Nuraan Arendse
Hosts trade floor demos and monthly counter rotations.
Your point of contact at Sunnyrock Trade Yard
Ms Nuraan Arendse is the first face many Germiston workshop buyers see when they arrive at the Sunnyrock Trade Yard. As the showroom host for ByThis, she’s responsible for organising trade floor demos and handling the monthly counter rotations that keep equipment relevant for South African teams. Her weekdays often start with setting up vinyl cutter stations or prepping a CNC table for live demonstration, especially on Wednesdays when FET college groups make bookings to see machines in actual motion. Nuraan’s style is straightforward: she’ll point out which kit makes sense for a start-up bench at a Cresta or Tyger Valley mall bay, or flag what materials get hit hardest by Highveld dust and summer humidity.
What’s on the bench this month
While ByThis never runs a megacatalogue, the counter rotations mean real kit gets real testing, every calendar month. Nuraan plans these rotations based on what plant and yard buyers actually request, like heat presses that handle irregular supply during power cuts, or finishing shortlists that survive sea air at oceanfront outlets. This month, the Makro Place floor has three DTF printer options side by side, plus two aluminium trimmer sizes ready for hands-on trial. Her picks change often, and if you want to see how a finishing kit holds up over a full working day, just email and she’ll prep a demo slot for your team.
From enquiry to install: practical, step by step
For plant and yard buyers, Nuraan is also the bridge from email brief to a working solution. When a factory in Kempton Park or a retail tenant at Menlyn Mall messages us through our contact form, she reviews the detail with the Sunnyrock team. She’ll walk you through the shortlist, for example, three vinyls that install clean in a 5-metre bay, or a CNC rig that fits your available bench. Once gear is picked, Nuraan handles handover for pick-up at Makro Place or books yard delivery, making sure your station is ready for install. The process is built for South African trade buyers, not overseas assumptions. If yard fitting is needed, say cutting a fixture to slot beside a compressor, she’ll schedule it with your foreman or counter manager.
When to contact Nuraan Arendse
If you’re starting out at a new trade bay or need to see how shortlisted machines handle Highveld dust or coastal air, Nuraan is your go-to. She’s the right point of contact for questions about kit performance in real shop conditions, arranging live demos, or working out practical install steps for bigger items. Plant buyers needing specific voltage or space checks can email her to book actual yard tests, especially handy if your station has odd angles or tight power needs. She’s also your contact for booking monthly demo slots or confirming counter rotation schedules for your crew.
