Independent living aids for the physically challenged

The market for independent living aids for the physically challenged is a relatively small one, with a total spend of about R51 million. Unfortunately, it's not growing, with zero year-on-year growth, which might make it a challenging space to enter. You'll be competing with only a handful of suppliers, about 3, which could be a favourable situation if you can offer something unique. The Department of Social Development is the main buyer in this space, and it's worth noting that they allocate a significant portion of their budget to black-owned businesses, at about 45%. If I were you, I'd focus on building a strong relationship with the Department of Social Development and ensuring your organisation meets the requirements for black ownership to increase your chances of securing contracts.
