Thu 30 September 2021:
Cabinet has called on more businesses affected by the July unrest to register on the Business Loss Registration Portal for financial relief.
This government intervention will provide a single entry point for companies to indicate the losses suffered in affected areas in KwaZulu-Natal, Gauteng and other affected areas.
Cabinet has welcomed this move that seeks to better coordinate relief measures and inform future interventions.
The Department of Small Business Development indicated that it already received 192 applications from small to medium business owners that were hard hit by the mass unrest and looting.
“Cabinet is pleased that a total of R54.2 million has been approved to be allocated to these business owners.”
The Executive is urging more business owners to sign up on www.relief4sa.co.za.
Alternatively, they may call 080 006 00850 for assistance between 08:00 and 17:00 on weekdays.
