Murangi Productions invests in Robe

Murangi Productions started as a family-based technical production and rental company in the year 2000. The company is now based in Edenvale, Johannesburg, South Africa, and run by Hendrick Nemalili and his wife Rose. The company is named in memory of their late firstborn son, Murangi Nemalili, who passed away in 2007 after a car accident.

Murangi Productions supplies full-production and crew to corporates, awards ceremonies, live shows, music festivals and church-based events including gospel shows and has recently expanded its inventory of Robe moving lights, with the purchase of twelve LEDBeam 150s and twelve LEDBeam 350s with twelve Paintes on order.

Like many businesses in South Africa, Murangi Productions scaled back during the pandemic but was robust enough to survive, and they are now steadily gaining momentum again, with the assistance of their twelve full-time staff.

At the end of 2022, Hendrick and Rose Nemalili were confident enough about the industry bounce back to make this major outlay on new Robe fixtures. The LEDBeam 150s arrived first shortly after the order was placed, soon followed by the LEDBeam 350s in February of this year.

The first show for the new LEDBeams was the 2023 North West Sports Awards held at Sun City Superbowl in March, for which Murangi supplied the full production with the company’s chief lighting designer Musa Mthetwa as the LD.

These were not the first Robe luminaires in the Murangi house - they also have twelve LEDBeam 100s, the precursor to the 150, and eight Spikies in the inventory, along with eight MiniPointes and a couple of PixelPatts.
