Printing and publishing equipment

You're looking to get into the printing and publishing equipment market in KwaZulu Natal, which is worth about R43 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. It's also not too crowded, with only 16 suppliers currently serving 7 different government departments. What's interesting is that the government is favouring black-owned businesses, with about 76% of the allocation going to them, so if your business fits that criteria, you may have a competitive edge. If I were you, I'd focus on building relationships with those 7 government departments to get a foothold in this market.
