Classroom and instructional and institutional furniture and fixtures

The market for classroom and instructional furniture in KwaZulu Natal is worth about R1.4 million, which is a decent size for a niche market. However, it's not growing at the moment, with zero year-over-year growth, so you'll need to compete for existing business. The market is relatively uncrowded, with only 7 suppliers currently active, and the Department of Education is the main buyer. It's also worth noting that the government is prioritising businesses with a strong black economic empowerment profile, with over 73% of spend allocated to black-owned businesses. If you're considering entering this market, make sure you understand the government's procurement requirements and get your B-BBEE level in order to increase your chances of success.
