After being awarded one of my company’s biggest tenders, I had mixed emotions. What was supposed to be an exciting time for my business turned out to be the most stressful. On the one hand I was excited at the opportunity, yet nervous about how I was going to fulfill my obligations under the tender. Working capital is a major challenge for any small business and a lack thereof can result in failure to deliver on projects which can lead to reputational damage and ultimately business failure. My business was no different – cash flow was an issue. While I was a proud awardee of a tender, I had no means of funding to deliver on it – a major source of stress and frustration for me. All that changed when I approached Tender Funding. Within a day, they came back with a funding proposal which I accepted. Their on boarding process took no more than two weeks and was fairly simple. I was pleasantly surprised to find out that Tender Funding also assists with procurement, not just locally but internationally as well. This came as a bonus to me as I needed to source my goods overseas. I was not only assisted with funding, but with sourcing of an overseas supplier and importing. All the logistics were handled by Tender Funding on my behalf. If only I had known about Tender Funding earlier, I would not have suffered like I initially did. Now that I have been on boarded on Tender Funding's system, it has become even easier for me to apply for funding and the waiting period has been significantly reduced. Tender Funding truly does offer peace of mind. I would certainly use them again in the future and would recommend them to anyone else in need of funding.

A young entrepreneur has carved out a niche for himself in the multi-billion rand alcoholic beverages industry by manufacturing innovative disposable ice buckets. Phenyo Sebaeng has founded Sebaeng Solution Manufacturing Company to supply retailers with disposable ice buckets. Among Sebaeng’s biggest customers is Africa’s largest food retailer, the Shoprite Group. The sober-minded 28-year old businessman says the ice buckets have been well received by the market and are available at all Shoprite LiquorShop outlets countrywide. The ambitious former waiter says as part of his growth strategy he is already in serious talks with Anheuser-Busch InBev, the world’s largest beer company, Heineken South Africa, and multinational brewing and beverage company Distell, to sell to them as well. “There are lots of people out there who have brilliant ideas,” he says. “Get an education and look for opportunities. Once you have discovered your strength, your passion and what you are good at, then there’s no need to waste time. Your one day could very well be today.” He says he feels blessed that at his young age he is supplying Shoprite as this has shown him that what started off as a stupid idea has turned into a big business venture. “All I wanted to do was to stand up and chase my dream. I still can’t believe what the Shoprite Group has done for us. They gave us an opportunity of a lifetime and on top of that they were very patient with us.”
