Clothing

R2 million government market · 52 suppliers · FY 2025/26

The government procurement market for clothing is a substantial one, with about R2 million spent in total. This market is relatively stable, with no year-over-year growth, which could indicate a steady demand for clothing supplies. With 52 suppliers catering to 18 different departments, it's a fairly crowded space, so you'll need to differentiate your business to stand out. It's also worth noting that a significant portion of the spend, about 66%, goes to black-owned businesses, so your B-BBEE level could play a role in your competitiveness. To get a foothold in this market, you should start by analysing the procurement needs of the 18 departments involved and tailor your offerings to meet their specific requirements.
