The fact that black ppl are clapping hands, jumping up & down as if they’re directly involved in production and contributing to the GDP is stuff of legends. “Our malls, our economy”. StrongerTogether.

So what have you and your friends built lately?

No time to rest for those that want to change things. Thanks to my brother Tumi for branding us; our bakkie in 2021 and our DC Signage today. Time to fly… #KhonaLa

I’m looking for new friends, new blacks…

There are lots of young chefs eKasi that can shame this menu. But if you don’t focus on building a BRAND, it will be near impossible to even charge these prices and keep the business afloat. Look at those x5 chips 🍟 and Coke… So, please brand your business/products properly.

Many moons ago I penned this “open letter” to black entrepreneurs bemoaning lack of the understanding in building long lasting brands. It was so difficult to find strong black brands in our democracy. This government suppress us whilst promoting big corporations even emakasi

It’s it your duty as an uncle to create jobs for your nephews and nieces out here…otherwise they’re on their own. Been telling you…

From time to time I’m an Advertising/Brand Specialist & I comment on various issues on branding/brands & everything marketing. Don’t judge my Swati pls; interview on Ligwalagwala FM

So the Apartheid regime, as part of the buffer system would create these Industrial Parks for small black businesses. Mostly were manufacturing; even if it was just welding ama-bugler etc. These ones with those funding agencies (jobs 4 pals), can’t even copy/paste & fund ppl 🤷🏿‍♂️

Building from scratch is no child’s play. Reason why BEE Millionaires (deal makers) prefer to use their ‘blackness’ to acquire shares of other ppls business cos they can’t build shite. Then they gaslight black entrepreneurs that they’re not building BIG things that can on JSE

As natives we need to stop clapping and dancing for others. We need to focus on building ours. Start where you are…

Recolonisation will be televised! Bonjour

Can ppl from Thokoza shed some light if this has happened in their area; of the 15 000; who do they know who has benefited from this Programme in their community?

In 2022, Premier of GP then signed into law the Township Economic Dev Act. I even attended the historic event in Orlando. That was the last time I heard of it or its implementation. Yesterday I posted about our DC…today there’s an announcement about some DC. Hauweng. Shona Khona

Children in the townships eat this daily. There's no nutritional value whatsoever. We're dealing with serious malnutrition & stunting in our communities. We will reduce & scrap this product from our shelves. Disclaimer: I will deal with trollers harshly here, this is no joke!

Today marks the 1st day at our new warehouse; of many to follow (InshAllah). It took us 6 years just to get here. I have no time nor inclination whatsoever for BEE millionaires. They must just say ‘thank you’ to their political masters & enjoy their money, sosala sibamba Khona La

BEE millionaires must shut it and enjoy their monies… the gumption to gaslight entrepreneurs is totally unacceptable. I take serious umbrage to this balderdash…

I’m convinced Curro marketing department know how to create serious talk-ability campaigns. And they know black parents will do anything for their kids to be there. Genius. Oh; if you’re really offended, there’s an alternative in FutureNationSchools and they’re black owned. Wow

In 2021 an ‘informal markets’ rep from FNB visited our store. A discussion quickly turned nasty when I said we will discontinue selling this to children since they offer no nutritional value. He retorted that then we don’t want to make profit. We kissed potential funding goodbye
