The development finance market is a relatively small one, with about R378,000 recorded in government spend. This market doesn't seem to be growing, as the year-over-year growth is zero, indicating a stable but not expanding opportunity. It's also a fairly exclusive space, with only 4 suppliers currently working with 3 government departments. Notably, the majority of the spend, about 78%, goes to black-owned businesses, so your B-BBEE level could be an important factor in competing here. To get a foothold in this market, you should start by ensuring your organisation is properly certified and positioned to meet the government's development finance needs, particularly if you're a black-owned business.
