Who Are We?
The Seeds of Change Enterprise and Supplier Development Programme is an intervention aimed at growing sustainable businesses that seed new economic activity, create job opportunities and generate long-term value, resulting in local economic growth. This is achieved through a vigorous search and selection process, aligning the entrepreneur with one of the three stages of our programme; Incubation, Consolidation or Acceleration. Each stage is specific to the entrepreneur’s development needs. Our programme focusses on providing effective and impactful business skills training, mentorship & coaching and access to business services, markets and interest free seed capital. The ultimate goal of our programme is to unlock shared value creating a win-win solution for our BBBEE Donors as well as for the Entrepreneurial Partner Businesses linking them into Supplier Chain Networks
Our Founder
Jane Chapman
“Ever since I can remember I have dreamt of having the opportunity to spend time in development work and self-help initiatives. I’m learning every day and feel privileged to work with the talented, highly dedicated entrepreneurs at the Seeds of Africa Skills Centre. It is engaging and inspirational seeing the transformative power of using funds to seed small businesses that boost livelihoods, giving regular income that leads to the creation of more jobs extending the economic benefits into the broader community. Through offering the opportunity to empower themselves we are most humbled to see their dignity and confidence being restored whilst uplifting and improving their lives.”
