Preferential procurement is a significant driver of transformation in South Africa, and we strive to ensure that we procure from suppliers that are BEE accredited and that we also contribute to the development of small suppliers through our Enterprise and Supplier Development program. Our Enterprise and Supplier Development program seeks to assist qualifying EME’s, QSE’s and 51% black-owned entities through;

  • Financial and Non-Financial support
  • 3-year supplier agreements
  • 15 days early payments

 

Employment Equity

As Lesedi we recognise that establishing a workforce that broadly reflects the country’s demographics is equally a business and social imperative. Thus, driving diversity and inclusion is an integral part of our transformation and human resource strategies and processes.
