The development finance market is a relatively small one, with a total spend of about R378 million, which hasn't changed much from last year. This market is quite niche, with only 4 suppliers currently operating in it, and it's supported by just 3 government departments. It's worth noting that the National Treasury favours businesses with a good Broad-Based Black Economic Empowerment level, with about 78% of the allocation going to black-owned businesses. The market is also relatively supportive of women-owned businesses, with about 11% of the allocation going to them. If I were you, I'd focus on building relationships with these 3 key government departments to get a foothold in this market.
