Crocodile
The crocodile featured in the Newo logo is a powerful symbol rooted in the heritage of the Bakwena people, an influential ethnic group in South Africa. The crocodile, a revered animal within the Bakwena culture, represents strength, resilience, and adaptability—qualities that are integral to Newo’s values. Thabo Mokwena, the company’s founder, hails from the Bakwena people, and he chose to incorporate this symbol to honor his heritage.
The crocodile also serves as a reminder of Newo’s commitment to giving back to communities, particularly those of the Bakwena descent, while reflecting Thabo’s personal connection to his roots.
