Doing Business in the Zulu Kingdom

KZN is a construction and logistics hub. The Durban Port generates massive supply chain opportunities.

eThekwini Municipality (Durban)

As one of the largest metros, eThekwini spends billions annually. They have specific requirements regarding 'Targeted Enterprises' (women, youth, disabled, military veterans).

KZN Department of Transport

Known for its 'Vukuzakhe' emerging contractor program, this department is aggressive about SMME development in road maintenance.

Critical Success Factors

  • Local Presence: KZN entities strongly prefer locally based companies. Having a registered office in the province is a major advantage.
  • Attendance: Briefing sessions in KZN are almost always compulsory. Miss one, and you are out.
