Business growth testimonials

LIGALELO TRADING

Company overview:

Ligalelo Trading is a construction and plant hire company operating from their base in Mbombela, servicing construction and civils projects.

Key Achievements

Marketing & Sales: They made a smart plan to grow their business. Now, instead of speaking to only 5 clients a month, they talk to more than 30. This helped them grow their number of regular customers by 50%.

Machines & Equipment: They started with only 4 big machines. Now they have 11. Because of this, they had to move to a new, bigger site that is well located in town – which also helps them get noticed by more people.

Team: Nathi embraced the process of defining a role, and then training employees to deliver that role. He included his team in the Aurik process to ensure rapid buy-in and adoption of the systems and processes designed. This has enabled rapid staff growth from 3 to 13.

Dezina Pak | How a sustainable packaging business, built scale and is ready for growth

Scale & growth: Jodie successfully self-funded the import of a full container of stock which offered greater range to her clients, reduced cost and necessitated a new warehouse and more staff to manage the increased workload

Delegation: The implementation of an inventory management system, together with an organisational structure with clear roles led to the hire of two new employees to release Jodie’s time to focus on strategy

Profitability: Access to bulk stock reduced cost and increased capacity, allowing Dezina to service more clients. Improved systems operated by a purposeful team have improved efficiencies, all contributing to profit increase
