INFORMATION BROCHURE 2020

The programme runs for up-to two years and follows a carefully designed and well-proven method. This has delivered exceptional results time and again across many business sectors.

The support package includes extensive entrepreneurial skills development, mentorship and access to tools and templates. Connection to peers around the country, as well as access to markets and finance make this an exciting and successful programme. The SAB Foundation is especially keen to create opportunities for entrepreneurs with disabilities, who are strongly encouraged to apply.

Similarly, applications are welcome from businesses working in new and/or growing sectors such as export, manufacturing, food processing, water, energy and waste management.

The Tholoana Enterprise Programme challenges participants to make changes and professionalise their business by thinking, planning and acting differently. This level of change requires the full commitment of the entrepreneur to enable solid growth as opposed to “quick-fix” solutions.

In the past these changes have resulted in our participants increasing their turnover by 85%, from R170 million at inception to R315 million as at 2019, as well as creating 832 new jobs.

Business support is offered for:

• Businesses in their early developmental phase  (does not have to be registered yet)
• Registered businesses in their growth phase
