Far Eastern Group celebrates its 70th anniversary in 2019. The event coincides with the 60th anniversary of APG Polytech in West Virginia, U.S., and the one-year anniversary of the acquisition. The triple celebration calls for a large-scale event, and a carnival was held to express the Company’s appreciation to the staff. The event builds cohesion and solidarity among staff; rapport with suppliers; connection to the local community, which is a positive enhancement of corporate image.

The carnival was held on August 24th, 2019. The Company invited approximately 450 guests to the event, including staff, their family members, suppliers, governmental representatives and local residents. The event offered fun rides, food and beverage, live musical performance and souvenirs. The guests were also invited to tour the plant for a glimpse of the workplace and production activities.

The carnival is a prominent event and still much talked about among staff and the locals. Speakers and press members also referenced FENC from Taiwan for the investments and benefits it brought to local communities. The rebirth of APG Polytech has made a deep impression among community members, which will benefit corporate reputation and future recruitment efforts.
