The Orchestrator, Cape Dutch Wine Cafe in Thailand, With Mark Casey

In this podcast recording, retired Deloitte partner Mark discusses his transition from a corporate career to co-founding the Cape Dutch Wine Cafe in Thailand. Alongside his wife, a former diplomat, he aims to introduce ultra-premium South African wines to the Thai market, focusing on the "new wave" movement. Mark highlights his identity as an "orchestrator" and "inspirer," using these leadership skills to foster unprecedented collaboration among competing wine importers. This collective effort has culminated in a landmark event showcasing 36 South African wine estates, the largest of its kind in Asia. Ultimately, he envisions his brand as a cultural hub in Chiang Mai that celebrates South African hospitality, music, and heritage while building strong connections with the local community.
