The government will launch a R500 million fund within two weeks to assist spaza shops and small businesses.

The initiative provides financial aid, training, and group buying opportunities to enhance operational capacity and market competitiveness.

So far, 17,617 spaza shops and food outlets in Gauteng have registered, including 7,107 applications from foreign nationals.

A total of 4,610 food safety compliance certificates were issued, while 498 non-compliant businesses were shut down.

We are planning to roll out a multi-disciplinary outreach programme. The purpose of the outreach programme is to bring government services closer to the people through disseminating information on community convenience shops and support offerings.
— Minister for the Department of Small Business Development Stella Ndabeni-Abrahams during a media briefing in Pretoria.
