According to SANParks Managing Executive for Tourism Development, Marketing & Communications, Ms. Hapiloe Sello, SANParks has to put up these temporary service points as a precautionary measure after the business disruption experienced at the three Mugg & Bean restaurants in early December as a result a dispute between the operator and their employees.

Ms. Sello said, “We trust that we will soon find a lasting solution to the problem and hope that these contingency measures will ensure that the visitor experience is not compromised.” The temporary structures can be found at the day visitor areas in Satara and Olifants, whilst the structure in Letaba will be situated next to the Elephant hall.

“SANParks sincerely apologises for the inconvenience and hopes that your stay in the Park will be as memorable as always,” concluded Ms. Sello.
