Lubricants and oils and greases and anti corrosives

The market for lubricants and oils is a significant one, with the government spending about R117 million on these products. This market is relatively stable, with no year-over-year growth, which could indicate that it's a mature market with established players. With 33 suppliers already catering to 35 different government departments, it's a fairly crowded space, so you'll need to differentiate your business to stand out. Notably, there's currently no allocation favouring black-owned, women-owned, or youth-owned businesses in this sector, which may impact your organisation's competitiveness. If I were you, I'd focus on building strong relationships with key decision-makers in departments like the Department of Public Works, to get a foothold in this market.
