AssociationFinder

The Bloemfontein (Mangaung) Chamber of Commerce and Industry was constituted in March 2004 following unity negotiations among three former business organisations – CBI/SBI (‘Central Business Incorporated), the AHI and NAFCOC. In forming a new chamber of commerce and industry, the unifying bodies agreed to forego their independent identities.

Phaphama SEDI (PHAPHAMA)

AssociationFinder

Phaphama SEDI is a non-profit organisation that was started in 2014 by a small group of dynamic UCT students. The aim of Phaphama was to increase the entrepreneurial capacity of small businesses in the Khayelitsha and Philippi area by connecting them with a consulting team of senior UCT students.

Each entrepreneur is teamed for the entirety of the programme with three student consultants. These groups, comprising of diverse academic backgrounds and skill sets, mean that each business owner will receive consistent and specialised attention throughout the year, in addition to the overarching skills-building training they will receive in the module workshops.

To date we have worked with over 100 small to medium enterprises and over 300 student consultants. In doing so, we labour tirelessly to make success a reality for our entrepreneurs, at the same time we seek to equip our consultants with practical skills. We want student consultants to experience what it is like to work with the local business community.
