Tomer Elhadad
Clyde Elhadad (also cited as “Tomer Elhadad” in some sources) is co-founder and Chief Operations Officer of Xpressocafe (Pty) Ltd. His formal title of COO was confirmed by FASA (Franchise Association of South Africa), which directly quotes him in their accredited member listing. He is the operational counterpart to his wife Nicolene Elhadad’s brand-development focus, with expertise in operations and business systems — an alignment with the franchise’s emphasis on operational consistency.

The name discrepancy between “Tomer” (used by EWN April 2026, How We Made It In Africa February 2025, and the Xpresso company website itself) and “Clyde” (used by BusinessTech March 2026 and FASA’s accredited listing, where he is quoted directly) likely reflects a dual name — “Tomer” is a Hebrew given name, “Clyde” may be an anglicised name he uses in formal business contexts. FASA quotes him directly as “Clyde”, making it the most authoritative source for his operational name.
