About Us

Phakamisa Group was established with a vision to create sustainable business solutions that support commercial growth while contributing meaningfully to economic transformation in South Africa.

From the beginning, the group was built on the belief that procurement, supplier development and enterprise growth should work together to create long-term value for businesses, entrepreneurs and the broader economy.

At the heart of the group is the Phakamisa Development Trust, which holds the shares within the Phakamisa Group of companies. More than a shareholder structure, the Trust represents the group's deeper purpose – creating opportunities for sustainable black business development and meaningful economic participation.

Through the Trust, Phakamisa Group is actively involved in supporting and developing growing black-owned businesses. Current development initiatives include Ruhamah Water and Cakes of Joy, with a focus on building businesses that can create long-term impact, independence and opportunity within their communities.

Through its various companies, Phakamisa Group provides integrated procurement, logistics, trading and ICT solutions designed to help businesses operate more efficiently while simultaneously creating opportunities for developing enterprises.

At its core, Phakamisa Group believes that business should be about more than transactions. It should be about building sustainable structures, empowering entrepreneurs, creating opportunities and contributing to a stronger South African economy for future generations.

By combining operational expertise with transformation-focused business solutions, Phakamisa Group aims to become a trusted long-term partner to both corporate clients and growing enterprises — helping businesses grow while uplifting the people behind them.

“Business should be about more than transactions – it should be about building sustainable structures, empowering entrepreneurs and contributing to a stronger South African economy.”
