Limpopo woman in construction shares updates
Rabelani told Briefly News about her latest achievements, which include employing 35 people and opening a branch of her business in Centurion, Gauteng:
“In December, we decided we are not closing, we are working because the grind does not end. We are working hard. We are not controlled by festivities, we are working and have a lot to still achieve in 2023.”
Construction worker creates jobs
The businesswoman wants to continue providing sustainable employment to young men and women and growing the rapport of her enterprise.
She also wants to continue giving young ladies a leg-up in the so-called male-dominated world of construction:
“It’s a woman’s company, so I must at least have few women in the company to empower others. They just apply for opportunities via email.”
Cape Town single mom conquers construction
In a related story by Briefly News, a mother of one from Cape Town has overcome a childhood of struggles and now owns a construction company.
Nonceba Ndube was raised by a single mom who worked two jobs, with the family at one point all living in one room in the Gugulethu township.
The civil engineer maintains that although the family did not have much money, the love in their home and the strength of her mother inspired her to reach for the stars.
