Real estate services

Your business is looking at the real estate services market in the Eastern Cape, which is worth about R169 million. This market is relatively stable, with no year-over-year growth, so you won't have to worry about it shrinking or exploding anytime soon. With 188 suppliers already in the mix, it's a fairly crowded space, but there's still room for your organisation to make a mark, especially if you can favour black-owned, women-owned, or youth-owned businesses, which get a significant allocation of about 33%, 11%, and 9% respectively. The Department of Public Works is likely one of the 10 departments driving demand, so it's worth looking into their programme and procurement needs. If I were you, I'd start by analysing the current suppliers and identifying areas where your business can differentiate itself and offer unique value to the Eastern Cape government.
