Celebrating International Bacon Day with a Tradie Breakfast Extravaganza!

On September 6th, Viking Roofspec hosted a Tradies Breakfast, bringing together installers and suppliers to celebrate International Bacon Day (officially marked on September 7th).

Despite the weather not cooperating, the event went ahead seamlessly, thanks to the flexibility of moving into the warehouse. Jerry manned the BBQ, serving up delicious bacon rolls that kept everyone fuelled and happy. Matthew Allan, of Carr New Zealand was also on hand to showcase Leister’s full range of roofing tools and accessories.

A highlight of the morning was Gerhard of Viking, who demonstrated the welding capabilities of Leister’s UNIROOF 700. Attendees were particularly interested in its data recording capabilities and the detailed reporting it offers through the MyLeister App, making it a standout for precision work.

The event was not just about bacon and tools though, as it provided a fantastic opportunity to connect with a number of professionals across the roofing industry.

As part of the celebration, there was also an exciting prize draw. Three lucky winners walked away with Leister Roofing Multitools, crafted in collaboration with Victorinox, the iconic Swiss Army knife brand.

Winners of the Multi tool were:

  • Stefan from Prince Roofing
  • Paul from Cover Right Roofing Limited
  • Roman from Complete Water Proofing

Additionally, three Leister High Vis Vests were awarded to:

  • Rama from Gunac
  • Quintin from Alliance Water Proofing
  • James from Prince Waterproofing

Viking’s very own Ange had the honour of conducting the prize draw, and a massive thanks goes out to the entire Viking team for organising this fantastic event.

We look forward to more opportunities to connect and celebrate with our incredible Leister customers and resellers!
