  • Promote standardisation of goods and services
  •  Promote formalisation of businesses – necessary for receiving structured business support 
  • Increase uptake of locally produced raw materials and intermediate products in supermarket chain stores, mining supply chains and government line ministries – e.g 35% local content (Rules of Origin)
  • Promote and strengthen business to business linkages
  • Promote exports – penetration into regional and international markets
  • Promote environmentally friendly means of production (Link to PZC Sustainability Walk success story).
  • Promote sustainable production and consumption
