The head of an Australia-funded South African mining project last week highlighted just how advantageous it is to be able to pick up the phone and have local South African mining product suppliers ensure operational continuity for him at all times of the day and night.

The equipment he was referring to was not only supplied by South African companies but also manufactured, supplied and serviced by South Africans with great enthusiasm and efficiency. Against that background, it is so important for government to be made aware of the importance of ensuring that local manufacturers find it good to do business in South Africa. Let’s all put our shoulders to the wheel re-turbocharging our economy during this time of need.
