Township Economic Hubs

• Purpose

The aim of this programme is to provide a suite of interventions to aid and grow informal businesses in Townships in order to enhance the ability of these businesses that will result in the creation of decent work opportunities and increase economic activity in Townships. The project is intended to target the youth of Gauteng given the high level of unemployment rate among this population group. The project will focus on three types of Township Hubs which are envisaged to have the core business/service function and provide other services related to the core business of the hub.

• Backyard Mechanics are the common economic activities in Townships. Many of these mechanics operate either to augment their salaries from formal mechanics or others operate workshops as their primary source of income. Many of the mechanics are not accredited by vehicle manufacturers and as such they are not able to access the market of vehicles on warrant and on motor plan. This is because the vehicle manufacturers only support vehicles being serviced at workshops that have been officially accredited.
