Re-building the economy through small business development

Sep 22, 2020 | News, News and announcements

In response to the severe impact of the Covid-19 pandemic on small businesses, Black Umbrellas, a Cyril Ramaphosa Foundation partner entity, has developed a sustainability programme to “resuscitate, stabilise and sustain” SMEs during and after the pandemic.

In the normal course of times, small businesses are important to South Africa’s economy. They are a key driver of job creation and GDP growth. In the context of the need to recover and grow the economy, small business support and development is a priority.

To partner with Black Umbrellas to help rebuild the economy through your supply chain, contact 0861 UMBRELLA or email info@blackumbrellas.org to partner today. Watch the Black Umbrellas sustainability programme video below:
