Access to financeA key element to successful delivery, we have secured risk mitigation TPFA accounts that serve as a powerful aid to qualifying SMEs, which means they are able to deliver on major contracts in a financially controlled manner

Access to marketsTushiyah actively seeks linkages in corporate value chains and acts as an enabler for SMEs, with tangible benefits for the corporate, state owned enterprise or organisation

Access to capacity buildingTushiyah has an extensive track record in training, coaching and mentoring entrepreneurs in business management and technical skills. Which is why we were appointed the sole licencees for the renowned Business Edge™ franchise in South Africa. An abundance of Masters Degrees, held by many of our staff, fortifies our delivery successes

We have adopted a model that we believe has all the makings of success, captured in three distinct and interdependent facets needed by SMEs: access to finance, access to market and access to capacity building. Our premise is simple: at any point in the development cycle of a successful entrepreneurship, a combination of these three elements is needed. An SME with proper training, talent and the right product can only supply on its contractual mandate with financing. Tushiyah is mitigating risk for all parties through unique financial assistance.

We are very proud of the fact that right now, most of our business is derived from returning customers. We also enjoy a firm referral base, both within company departments as well as between companies. This is because we have some really smart people working for us – many of which are highly educated and who run their own businesses. Their understanding of life in the fast lane is complemented by their experiences on both sides of the equation: large corporates as well as SMEs.

SUCCESS IS ALL ABOUT ACCESS – ACCESS TO MARKETS, ACCESS TO FINANCE AND ACCESS TO CAPACITY BUILDING
