Uncover investment potential in KZN South Coast’s manufacturing sector. South Coast Tourism & Investment Enterprise (SCTIE) have identified manufacturing as a key growth sector on the KZN South Coast, with several sub-sectors primed for investment! Furniture Manufacturing: There are quality crafted furniture products throughout the KZN South Coast. Out of Wood, which sources timber locally from Surejoy Industries, is an example of the potential in this sub-sector. SCTIE has identified a gap in the value chain for transporting these handcrafted goods to the Gauteng market and beyond. Textile Manufacturing: Opportunity exists in cut, make, and trim (CMT) manufacturing to support the local fashion industry. Cengemajita Fashion & Entertainment is one emerging CMT manufacturer, with school uniform manufacture a focus. Investors could further this capacity, with potential for a mall-based retail outlet. The KZN South Coast’s regional manufacturing sector is supported by: • The Eastern Seaboard Development, a project that aims to strengthen economic linkages between provinces; and • The African Continental Free Trade Agreement (AfCFTA) that opens the region to the continental market.
