Unemployed black women through sponsorship from Gijima have launched their own car wash business based at Gijima’s Samrand premises in Centurian.
The sponsorship included free electricity, water, storage, a workstation, pressure cleaners, vacuum cleaners, provision of the initial start-up stock as well as clothing for the staff. They also received mentoring and coaching by the Gijima staff.
The Vehicle Cleaning Services Joint Venture is owned by the individual members who all benefit from the proceeds acquired from this entrepreneurial enterprise.
