SMMEs unable to access reliable foundational business infrastructure and support systems

Small and medium enterprises in South Africa face compounding challenges where basic operational anchors (likely referring to access to capital, reliable utilities, or essential services) are unstable, preventing them from scaling or operating efficiently. Current government and institutional support programs fail to address root causes, leaving SMMEs trapped in a cycle of operational instability that makes growth impossible.
