As we close out 2025 and look ahead to a new year, we’re reminded of how memorable and meaningful this year has been for App Inlet. Every year brings growth and new experiences, but 2025 stood out as a year defined by connection, celebration, community impact, and exciting developments for our team and company.
In this Year in Review, we highlight the moments that made 2025 so special and reflect on the milestones that shaped our journey.
Celebrating 10 Years of App Inlet
One of our biggest achievements this year was celebrating our 10th anniversary. Reaching a decade as a company is a milestone we are incredibly proud of. It reflects years of hard work, innovation, and the trust our clients have placed in us since day one.
To commemorate the occasion, the team enjoyed a creative outing to Clay Café, where we stepped away from our usual routines and enjoyed a day of painting, fun, and connection. The experience gave everyone a chance to express their creativity, unwind, and reflect on how far App Inlet has come. It was more than just a celebration — it was a moment that highlighted our unity and the strong foundation we’ve built together.
Welcoming New Team Members
Another important part of 2025 was the opportunity to welcome new team members to App Inlet. Each new addition brought fresh ideas, diverse skills, and new perspectives that strengthened our culture and enhanced the way we work.
Our growing team has played a key role in supporting client projects, improving internal processes, and driving innovation across the business. Their contributions, combined with the ongoing dedication of our long-standing staff, helped create a year filled with progress and collaboration.
Giving Back on Mandela Day 2025
Community involvement continued to be a central part of our values this year. For Mandela Day 2025, our Cape Town team participated in the Two Oceans Aquarium beach clean-up at Sunset Beach. The event aligned perfectly with our belief that even small actions can contribute to meaningful change.
It was a beautiful day spent walking the shoreline, collecting litter, and connecting with fellow volunteers. The initiative reminded us of the importance of environmental responsibility and the impact we can have when we come together as a community. We are thankful to the Two Oceans Aquarium for hosting an event that encourages awareness, conservation, and meaningful collaboration.
Supporting CANSA’s “High Tea in Paris” Event
In October, App Inlet proudly supported another important cause: the CANSA “High Tea in Paris” fundraiser in Pietermaritzburg. An App Inlet representative attended the event on our behalf, and App Inlet contributed by providing all the eats and drinks for the day.
The event was filled with inspiring talks, uplifting activities, and heartfelt stories from those affected by cancer. Through the combined support of everyone involved, R50,000 was raised to assist CANSA’s care and support programmes. We are honoured to have played a role in such a meaningful initiative, and we remain committed to supporting causes that make a positive difference in people’s lives.
Looking Ahead: A New Website
While 2025 was a year filled with memorable moments, we are also excited about what lies ahead. One of our biggest updates is the launch of our newly redesigned App Inlet website. The updated site will feature a fresh look, improved navigation, and a layout that better reflects our brand, services, and future direction.
We look forward to introducing a digital experience that is easier to use, more engaging, and aligned with the high-quality work we deliver every day.
Closing Out a Remarkable Year
As we reflect on 2025, we are grateful for the experiences that shaped our year — from celebrating a decade of App Inlet to expanding our team and supporting causes close to our hearts. This year reminded us of the power of teamwork, the importance of giving back, and the value of staying connected as a company and community.
To our clients, partners, and team members: thank you for your continued support and for being part of our journey. We are excited to carry the momentum of 2025 into the new year and continue building, growing, and making an impact together.
Here’s to an inspiring and successful 2026!
