OFM to open new studio operation in the Goldfields | News Article

OFM, the sound of your life in Central South Africa, is expanding its physical presence in Central South Africa with the opening of a satellite studio in Welkom at the Goldfields Mall.


The studio will become active in October 2018 and many of the stations' already popular radio shows will be presented from the exciting new premises at Goldfields Mall, the heart of Welkom. 

Listeners in the Goldfields can look forward to seeing the Big Breakfast team in the flesh - Martin van der Merwe, Duncan Bayne, Zelda Goetz and Adrian Botha. Darren Scott and his “Just Plain Drive” team of Natasja Jacobs and WR van der Merwe will also make an appearance. Other OFM favourites, Shandor Potgieter and Pieter Venter, will also make use of the studio. The official opening of the studio will coincide with the Goldfields Mall celebrating its 8th birthday (28 October 2018) on Saturday, 3 November 2018.

Says OFM General Manager, Nick Efstathiou:  “The Goldfields, especially Welkom, is close to our hearts; these are our people. We have for many years spoken of opening something special in the area and now we get to do it. We look forward to partnering with the Goldfields Mall and investing in the city and its people. Several of our presenters and staff members grew up in Welkom. They now get to go home often. This is an exciting new chapter for Welkom and for us.”

“Goldfields Mall is excited to embark on this adventure with OFM.  We are proud to be the new home to this satellite studio positioned in the heart of Welkom, bringing the “sound of your life” to the Community of Welkom," says Cheryl Seymour, Centre Manager at Goldfields Mall.

The studio is located next to Burger King in the Tower. For more information on the new studio, stay tuned to OFM, the sound of your life.
