Food and Beverage Products

R137 million government market · 514 suppliers · FY 2025/26

The market for Food and Beverage Products is a substantial one, with the government spending about R137 million on it. This market is relatively stable, with no year-on-year growth, so you won't have to worry about it shrinking or exploding anytime soon. With 514 suppliers already in the mix, it's a fairly crowded space, and you'll need to differentiate your business to stand out. It's also worth noting that the government has a strong favour towards businesses with black ownership, women ownership, and youth ownership, with 79% of the allocation going to black-owned businesses, 45.45% to women-owned, and 21.38% to youth-owned. If I were you, I'd focus on building a strong B-BBEE level, specifically targeting black ownership, to increase your chances of securing government contracts in this programme.
