April 2018 SMME NEWS 11 Small businesses prioritised at Africa Travel Exhibition The venue for Africa Travel Exhibition which is set to take place in May SMME Staff Reporter Africa’s biggest tourism exhibition event will take place from 8 - 10 May 2018 at the Inkosi Albert Luthuli Convention Centre (Durban ICC). As part of this exhibition, which is the largest in Africa, there is a groundbreaking initiative called ‘the Hidden Gems’ which seeks to ensure more small and medium sized black owned businesses are helped to access markets. This initiative is funded in part by the South African National Department of Tourism through its Tourism Incentive Programme. The objective of the “Hidden Gems” programme is to broaden the variety of tourism products on the market while upskilling and empowering blackowned small enterprises operating in the industry. According to South African Tourism’s CEO, Sisa Ntshona, giving small business owners a platform to showcase their work adds new and authentic flavours to the country’s tourism industry. “It is crucial for the health and evolution of our sector that we help to incubate start-ups and small businesses, especially those that add new, authentic flavours to our country’s tourism platter and we cannot wait to see how these innovative tourism ‘jewels’ shine on the trade floor.” In 2017, the Hidden Gems programme was felt to be one of the best new initiatives for the show. In addition to the South African products, many of the African countries exhibiting at the show are bringing new and exciting products to showcase. Furthermore, speaking at the 2017 INDABA Travel and Tourism Show’s opening ceremony, former President Jacob Zuma announced that Durban secured the rights to host the show for the next five years. This event is expected to generate an estimated R500 million in economic impact for the City of Durban and the KZN Province over the next five years. Indaba has been Africa’s top travel show since 1992. Durban secured the rights to host Indaba until 2022.

Makabongwe Nzunza, Ntuzuma Dear SMME team I hope that my email will find you all in good health and that my comment will reach the right people. With the recent VAT increase, I think it’s high time that the government gave small business owners a subsidy. Something to ease us of our burdens, we are trying by all means to create employment and feed our families but the situation is become more and more dire. Maybe in the next Statistics SA survey they must also note down people who survive through owning small businesses and then give us cards or codes for when we do our orders to be subsidized. Some of us have to pay rent for business premises, pay employees, feed our families and also try to keep our businesses afloat. I hope this will find the right people and something can be done about it. Samkelo Mthimkhulu, Bhamshela Dear SMME news Thank you very much for such an influential publication, your publication gives us hope and also open our eyes to new opportunities. I hope you continue to prosper and strengthen your reach to remote areas so that a lot of aspiring business people can be informed. I also like the fact that you give us news that solely deal with the economic outlook of our country as well as decision makers that impact small business owners. We as small business owners have a lot of problems, it’s nice to finally have a platform that seeks to deal with them. Looking forward to the next issue of your publication and thank you once again.
