Building and facility maintenance and repair services

The market for building and facility maintenance and repair services in Mpumalanga is worth about R4 million, which is a decent size. However, it's not growing at the moment, with zero year-on-year growth, so you'll need to compete for existing contracts. The market is relatively uncrowded, with only 6 suppliers currently operating, and just 3 government departments to deal with. It's also worth noting that the government is favouring businesses with black ownership, with about 80% of the allocation going to these organisations. If I were you, I'd focus on building relationships with the key departments, such as the Department of Public Works, to get a foothold in this market.
