Components for information technology or broadcasting or telecommunications

Your business is looking at a market in Mpumalanga for components related to information technology, broadcasting, or telecommunications, which is worth about R28 million. This market is relatively small and not growing, with no year-over-year growth, so you'll need to carefully consider whether it's worth entering. It's also a fairly exclusive market, with only 2 suppliers currently working with 9 different government departments. The good news is that there's a significant favour towards black-owned businesses, with about 16% of the allocation set aside for them. If I were you, I'd focus on building relationships with these government departments and ensuring your B-BBEE level is in order to take advantage of this allocation.
