Office machines and their supplies and accessories

Your business is looking at a market for office machines and their supplies and accessories in Gauteng, which is worth about R4.3 million. This market is relatively stable, with no year-on-year growth, so you won't have to worry about it shrinking or exploding anytime soon. With 54 suppliers already in the mix, it's a fairly crowded space, and you'll be dealing with 6 different government departments if you decide to get in. The fact that it's not growing means you'll need to be competitive to get a foothold. If I were you, I'd focus on building relationships with those 6 departments to get an edge over the existing suppliers.
