He also paid tribute to retired MD, Dieter Hesse and retired factory manager, Heinz-Dieter Nagel - both of whom were present for the occasion. The WIKA Group chairman, Alexander Wiegand, also took the opportunity to pay tribute to the WIKA South Africa subsidiary, its leaders - past and present - and its staff, "the most valuable asset ... not on the balance sheet."
