Manufacturing support services

R182 million government market · 167 suppliers · FY 2025/26

The manufacturing support services market is a significant one, with the government spending about R182 million on it. This market is relatively stable, with no year-on-year growth, so you won't see it expanding or shrinking dramatically. With 167 suppliers already in the mix, it's a fairly crowded space, and you'll need to differentiate your business to stand out. The Department of Trade and Industry, among 26 other departments, are key players in this market, and it's worth noting that black-owned businesses have a significant favour, with about 41% of the allocation going to them. If I were you, I'd focus on building relationships with these departments and highlighting your business's unique strengths to get a foothold in this competitive market.
