Celebrating Local Entrepreneurs on the Rise

Today’s feel-good update is packed with inspiring moments from across our diverse programmes, including something truly unexpected and wonderfully uplifting.

A special congratulations goes out to this incredible group of entrepreneurs who have spent the past year growing their small businesses with support from the Grootbos Foundation. Through seed funding, hands-on mentorship, and plenty of hard work, they’ve strengthened their skills, expanded their ideas, and built real momentum.

This week, they came together to reflect on their shared learning journey over the last six months, a space filled with encouragement, collaboration, and the kind of peer support that fuels long-term success. With renewed confidence and fresh ideas, they’re already gearing up to dive into 2026 with even bigger dreams.

Here’s to growth, community, and the bright future these entrepreneurs are creating!
