Free webinar: Transformation in agriculture and fuel franchising

The Department of Mineral Resources and Energy wants to ensure that the ownership of fuel stations is more representative of the country’s demographics. However, even though the liquid-fuel industry is highly regulated, with the government dictating the petrol price, black entrepreneurs still face challenges like access to infrastructure, finance and markets. This hinders competition and entry into the industry.

In this webinar, Moneyweb unpacks these challenges and provides fascinating insights from Prithivan Pillay and Cobus de Bruyn from Nedbank Commercial Banking.

You’ll also learn more about Nedbank’s partnership with SA PALS, an inspiring non-profit organisation developed by farmers in cooperation with local communities.

This initiative provides training, mentorship, specialist advisory support and capacity-building for farmers throughout the industry. Considering how agriculture remains a crucial part of the South African economy, Nedbank and SA PALS are on a mission to shift boundaries and empower farmers.

Already on a 10-year journey navigating industry challenges, Nedbank will share its insights in the livestream on the future of agriculture, its unique complexities, as well as opportunities for creating a sustainable and inclusive tomorrow.
