The first will be in conjunction with Maidenhead Chamber of Commerce on the 2nd March 2020 and the second will be on the 4th March in London.

Brexit opens up new opportunities for trade with South Africa. This Seminar is designed to give insights into one of the criteria for a successful business in South Africa, how to manage the BBBEE requirements.Come and join us to gain a deeper understanding of the BBBEE Act and associated Codes of Good Practice.

Bruce Lennon (right), a qualified and experienced Practitioner in this complex field, will share insights and understanding of Black Economic Empowerment which he has gained from providing administrative and strategic support to small, medium and large companies since the Act's inception in 2003 and the Codes in 2007.

David White and Bruce Lennon work side by side each day, helping their customers to understand Black Economic Empowerment, and to remain relevant and accredited to trade services with their specific target markets.

Black Economic Empowerment is an important criterion for companies to trade effectively in the South African market.
