Telecommunications media services

R106 million government market · 2,375 suppliers · FY 2025/26

The market for telecommunications media services is a substantial one, with the government spending about R106 million on these services. This market is relatively stagnant, with no year-over-year growth, which might indicate that it's becoming increasingly competitive. With 2375 suppliers already vying for contracts, it's a crowded space, and you'll need to differentiate your business to stand out. The Department of Communications and other government departments are among the 42 organisations that procure these services, and it's worth noting that black-owned businesses, including smaller companies, have a favourable allocation of about 15% of the spend. If I were you, I'd focus on building relationships with key decision-makers in these departments to get a foothold in this market.
