You can find the perfect product to suit your need and budget while also giving a thumbs up to local jobs with the wide range of quality, Proudly South African specials on offer this month.

From handmade glass art and craft beer to locally manufactured appliances, savvy shoppers can look forward to bargains on a wide range of phenomenal local products this Black Friday. As the South African economy begins to recover from the impacts of COVID-19 and the July riots, showing support for local businesses and jobs is the right choice, says Proudly South African Chief Marketing Officer, Ms Happy MaKhumalo Ngidi.

“Whether you’re looking for unique and memorable gift ideas ahead of the festive season, or are busy planning your next DIY project, Proudly South African products not only offer outstanding quality but also the benefit of supporting local jobs and livelihoods, making buying local a meaningful purchase,” she notes.

“Additionally, locally manufactured products do not carry added import costs, which in turn means exceptional value in comparison to international brands. It’s a win-win for consumers, businesses and the economy. Living lekker locally puts the power of spending to work for the greatest rewards.”
