Sab aims to empower and equips entrepreneurs with vital business skills, access to finance geared to build and create sustainable businesses that grow their communities.

“Owning and running an effective truck business needs a strong understanding and knowledge of company costs, attending to strict vehicle maintenance and quality controls and intensive preparation for the various expenses necessary to run a transport business like mine,” says truck recipient, Gift Sithole. “Fortunately, the learnership programme I went through with SAB, prepared, and equipped me with logistics, financial and people skills to help manage and grow my business.”

Creating sustainable businesses

Sphe Vundla, corporate brand director, says: “A thriving SMME sector, powered by entrepreneurship and partnerships is central to the growth of the economy. We believe that through innovating the alcohol supply chain with initiatives such as the owner-driver programme, SAB has and will continue to positively impact the lives of individuals and communities across the country.”
