The animal feed market is a sizable one, with the government spending about R45 million on it. Unfortunately, it's not growing, with zero year-on-year growth, so you'll need to compete for a share of the existing market. It's also a relatively crowded space, with 30 suppliers already in the mix, and only one department to sell to. You should also be aware that the government has a strong favour for black-owned businesses, with about 86% of the allocation going to them, as well as women-owned businesses, which receive about 70% of the allocation. If I were you, I'd make sure your organisation is B-BBEE compliant and focuses on building relationships with the single department responsible for procurement in this space to increase your chances of success.
