Lamps and lightbulbs and lamp components

The market for lamps and lightbulbs in the Eastern Cape is relatively small, with about R53 thousand spent by government departments in this area. This market is quite niche, with only 4 suppliers currently serving 2 departments, which could be an opportunity for your business to get a foothold. It's worth noting that the market size has remained steady, with no year-over-year growth, so you'll need to compete for existing contracts. The good news is that there's a strong emphasis on supporting black-owned, women-owned, and youth-owned businesses, with significant percentages of spend allocated to these groups. To get started, you should review your B-BBEE level and consider how you can leverage your ownership structure to compete for contracts in this space.
