PRIME APEX TRAVEL AND EVENTS

You're competing with PRIME APEX TRAVEL AND EVENTS, a supplier that's been active for about 4 years and has a strong presence in 2 provinces. They do a significant amount of government work, with about R509 million in total revenue, and have a particularly close relationship with the Free State provincial government, working with departments like the Premier's office, Community Safety, and Health. What makes them a strong player is their ability to secure contracts across a range of commodities, including travel facilitation, hotels and lodging, and passenger transport, which suggests they have a broad range of services to offer. If I were you, I'd take a closer look at their contracts with the Free State government to see where you might be able to compete, particularly in the travel and events space.
