Sanlam & South African National Parks: Empowering SMMEs for Sustainable Growth and Biodiversity Conservation 🤝

The symbiotic relationship between SMMEs and SANParks is evident in the economic contributions of the country’s major national parks, estimated to be around R3 billion annually. The economic impact translates into job creation and retention within the SMME sector, benefiting local communities and fostering sustainable development. 👏

This is a core reason that Sanlam launched their partnership with South African National Parks (SANParks) in 2023, which started in the Kruger National Park with the aim to further boost this contribution to the economy and transform the lives of thousands of South Africans who are involved with the SMMEs that surround and support one of our nation’s most treasured wildlife areas. Following an initial investment of R10 million, the SMME Support Programme has expanded to aid all SANParks’ small business suppliers, with an initial focus on the Garden Route and Addo Elephant National Parks.
