Security and personal safety

The security and personal safety market is a significant one, with the government spending about R173 million in this area. This market is relatively stable, with no year-over-year growth, so you won't see it expanding rapidly. With 126 suppliers already serving 32 different departments, it's a fairly crowded space, but there's still room for your business to make an impact, especially if you're a black-owned, women-owned, or youth-owned organisation, as the government has allocated a significant portion of its spend to these groups, with black-owned businesses receiving about 76% of the allocation. The fact that women-owned and youth-owned businesses receive about 39% and 19% of the allocation respectively also presents opportunities for these groups. If I were you, I'd focus on building relationships with the key departments and highlighting your business's unique strengths and ownership structure to stand out in this competitive market.
