At the onset of post-apartheid, as per the rules there should be a considerable amount of black work force at the board and management level of all the companies in South Africa. And though Johann had openly promoted this equality move of the post-apartheid government at that time, his utter loathing tendency towards the blacks can be visible by just introspecting the white:black ratio of the employees of his group of companies. At Johann-owned Remgro, 18 of the 22 top and senior managers are white males. At Shoprite owned by Christoffel Wiese, another Stellenbosch mafia, had only two black board members—one female—out of 14. All eight executive directors are white males.
