Orthopedic and prosthetic and sports medicine products

The market for orthopedic and prosthetic products in the Eastern Cape is worth about R4.4 million, which is a decent size. However, it's not growing at the moment, with zero year-on-year growth, so you'll need to compete for existing business. With only 5 suppliers currently operating in this space, it's relatively uncrowded, which could be a favourable factor for your business. The fact that there's only 1 department involved in procurement also simplifies the process. If I were you, I'd focus on building a strong relationship with this department to increase your chances of securing a contract in this niche market.
