The market for livestock services is a significant one, with the government spending about R1.2 million on it. This market is relatively stable, with no year-over-year growth, which could indicate that it's a mature market with established players. With only 30 suppliers currently serving this market, it's not overly crowded, and the Department of Agriculture is the main buyer, so it's worth building a relationship with them. It's also worth noting that about 24% of the spend in this market is allocated to black-owned businesses, which could be an opportunity for your organisation to gain favour if you have a strong black economic empowerment programme in place. If I were you, I'd analyse the current suppliers and their offerings to identify gaps in the market that your business could fill, and then develop a strategy to approach the Department of Agriculture.
