NAT: SMALL BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT

The National Department of Small Business Development has a budget of about R2.7 million, which they use to buy a variety of goods and services, with a significant portion, about 29%, going towards advertising, which is about R778,400. They also spend a lot on banking and investment services, alternative educational systems, fuels, and computer services. Their biggest suppliers include the South African Broadcasting Corporation, FNB Fleet Services, and Vodacom, who together receive a substantial amount of their spending. The department's spending has remained steady, with no year-over-year growth, which might indicate a stable procurement programme. If I were you, I'd consider targeting this department, especially if your business offers advertising or computer services, as they seem to favour organisations like the South African Broadcasting Corporation and State Information Technology Agency.
