Mail and cargo transport

The market for mail and cargo transport in the North West province is worth about R1.5 million, which is a decent size. However, it's not growing, with zero year-on-year growth, so you'll need to compete for existing business. The market is relatively crowded, with 20 suppliers already working with 4 different government departments, and it's highly favourable to black-owned businesses, which receive about 97% of the allocation. To succeed, you'll need to differentiate your organisation and build strong relationships with the departments. If I were you, I'd focus on building a strong B-BBEE level, particularly if you're a black-owned business, to take advantage of the favourable allocation.
