Data Voice or Multimedia Network Equipment or Platforms and Accessories

The market for data and voice network equipment in Mpumalanga is worth about R3.3 million, which is a decent size for a niche market. Unfortunately, it's not growing, with zero year-on-year growth, so you'll need to compete for a share of the existing market. It's not a crowded space, with only 2 suppliers currently servicing 2 departments, which could be a favourable situation for your business. The Department of Trade and Industry's Broad-Based Black Economic Empowerment programme is also relevant here, with about 64% of the allocation going to black-owned businesses, so your B-BBEE level could be an advantage. If I were you, I'd investigate the current suppliers and departments involved to see if there's an opportunity to disrupt the market or form a strategic partnership.
