NeftalyP373-0: Neftaly CEO Neftaly Malatjie Official Speech for the Launch of the Neftaly Human Capital WooCommerce Product Management Policy

To the Chairperson of Neftaly, Neftaly Royal Committee, Neftaly Royal Chiefs, Neftaly Human Capital, Neftaly ICT and Neftaly Operations,

Today, we launch a critical digital commerce governance instrument:
The Neftaly Human Capital WooCommerce Product Management Policy – NeftalyP373.

As Neftaly expands its online presence, our products, services, subscriptions and classified digital assets must be governed with integrity, accuracy and compliance. WooCommerce is a key platform where we distribute programmes, courses, merchandise, events and Human Capital services.

This policy ensures that every product uploaded, edited, priced, categorised or published on our e-commerce system follows strict internal controls, quality checks, authorisation processes and Royal Committee oversight where required.

This is a milestone for Neftaly digital governance and operational excellence.

My message ends here.

Neftaly Malatjie
