CORNELL TOME

Group Director

Cornell Tome is what we in the office refer to as an Innovation Guru. Need a jetpack attached to your cat by tomorrow noon? He’s your guy. But on a more serious note, he can and will sort out any problem in your business.

As a young adult, he transformed a simple barman job into entrepreneurial success, quickly becoming the owner of the pub. Then, after a serious knee injury, Cornell opted for a more passive job as a storeman at Ivolve. While there, he overheard a conversation about a woman going on maternity leave and was able to fill her position temporarily, which turned into a massive success. Over the next 10 years, he worked as a Key Account Manager and Team Leader, and some of those clients are still with him today. Word spread about his successes in the industry, and he was offered a Sales Manager position at EOH, where he excelled for almost 5 years.

It was, however, inevitable that Cornell would start his own company, having entrepreneurship in his bones and being a “doer”. ICE Holdings was founded in 2016, steadily growing into a medium-sized corporation over the last few years, with a footprint across Africa.

Cornell’s passion for his community started years ago when he operated as a lifesaver at the former “Atlantis” in Centurion. Since then he has helped start initiatives bringing law enforcement and various security companies together to ensure security successes in his community. Being married with two boys, Cornell can be described as a caring and servant-hearted family man with a knack for cultivating hidden qualities in people.

Client Perspectives

"ICE has us covered on all fronts – IT procurement, IT rentals, and CCTV cameras – and we've been with them since they opened their doors. Their service? Top-notch. They're always on the ball, ready to lend a hand and deliver equipment pronto. We've got a solid rapport with them and are always able to talk straight. Their prices are on par with the market, but it's their stellar after-service that keeps us in their corner. ICE is like a trusty bakkie – reliable, gets the job done, and never lets you down."

Morne Kriel

PPS Healthcare

"For over 8 years, KeyHealth has relied on ICE for all IT equipment purchases and audio-visual solutions for our meeting rooms. The service from ICE has always been exceptional, with their team consistently going the extra mile. Their work quality and understanding of the products are among the best in the industry. Despite not being a large company, KeyHealth always receives personalised attention from ICE. A recent project to upgrade the conferencing equipment in our Executive Boardroom was executed flawlessly and within the given timeframe. I wholeheartedly recommend ICE to any individual or company seeking superior service and expertise."

Johan Fourie

KeyHealth Medical Scheme

"After a colleague recommended ICE, I haven't looked back. They are my go-to supplier for all my technology needs, from computer hardware to printers and more. What sets ICE apart is their prompt and efficient service. All it takes is a simple email and I receive a quick response, a competitive quote, and speedy delivery of my order. But it's not just about the products and efficiency, it's also about the people. The team at ICE is friendly and always ready to assist. I would recommend them to anyone in need of quality technology and exceptional service."

Reinier du Plessis

"We have used ICE for all our computer rentals since our inception around four years ago. Their service is commendable, with staff like Marie always ready to assist, ensuring prompt follow-ups. ICE's commitment to customer service is evident in their readiness to answer calls and queries at any time. We've built a strong relationship with their team and have always been impressed with the quality of their products. Even on the rare occasion when issues arise, they are resolved swiftly. Their offerings provide excellent value for money."
