Electrical equipment and components and supplies

The Western Cape government is spending about R1.7 million on electrical equipment and components, which is a decent sized market for your business to consider. Unfortunately, this market isn't growing, with zero year-on-year growth, so you'll need to compete for existing contracts. It's also a relatively crowded space, with 76 suppliers already vying for contracts from just 5 departments. Your B-BBEE level will be important here, as about 62% of the allocation goes to black-owned businesses, so it's worth ensuring your organisation is compliant. If I were you, I'd focus on building relationships with the key departments in the Western Cape, such as the Department of Transport and Public Works, to get a foothold in this market.
