Food and nutrition services

The market for food and nutrition services in Limpopo is worth about R123 million, which is a significant opportunity for your business. However, it's worth noting that this market isn't growing, with zero year-on-year growth, so you'll need to compete for existing contracts. With 191 suppliers already in the mix, it's a fairly crowded space, and you'll need to differentiate your organisation to stand out. The Department of Education, Health, and Social Development are likely key departments to target, given the nature of the services. If I were you, I'd focus on ensuring your B-BBEE level is up to date, given that 65% of the allocation goes to black-owned businesses, to give your business a favour in the procurement programme.
