Industrial laundry and dry cleaning equipment

Your business is considering the industrial laundry and dry cleaning equipment market in Mpumalanga, which is worth about R892 million. This market is currently not growing, with zero year-over-year growth, and it's surprisingly not very crowded, with only one supplier currently operating in this space. The Department of Trade and Industry, among others, is likely a key player in this market, given the allocation of funds. It's also worth noting that the government favours businesses with a strong black economic empowerment programme, with about 59% of the allocation going to black-owned businesses. If I were you, I'd focus on building a strong B-BBEE level, particularly targeting black ownership and women ownership, to increase your chances of securing government contracts in this market.
