The sessions that brought together local business people had the aim to promote business opportunities under the development of the PSA Project (Production Sharing Agreement), as well as to share the progress of the implementation of the Five Years Local Content Plan, signed with the Government of Mozambique.<\/p>\n<p>During the sessions, the SMEs had the opportunity to interact and clarify questions with Sasol experts from Procurement and SHE (Safety, Health and Environmental) requirements. In addition, lists of potential needs of services and goods for the Projects were shared with potential local suppliers.<\/p>\n<p>Addressing the business people during the roadshows, Sasol Managing Director, Ov\u00eddio Rodolfo, remembered that to ensure the sustainability of the Five-Year Local Content Plan, different actions are being implemented on 5 strategic fronts, namely: (1) Increased Local Procurement through preferential procurement, (2) Enterprise and Supplier Development (ESD) Programme, (3) SME Support Fund, (4) Local Employment and (5) Research, Development and Technology Transfer.<\/p>\n<p>In another development, Ov\u00eddio Rodolfo, accompanied by the Commercial Vice President, responsible for Sasol Local Content, said that the SME Support Fund, aims to expand the space of access to opportunities by local companies. \u201cWe note with great satisfaction the disbursement, so far, of about US$250,000, through the SME Support Fund, to 8 companies, 6 of which are from Vilankulos, 1 from Gouvuro and the other (1) from Inhassoro. We hope that more companies will benefit from the Fund made available through the BCI bank\u201d, he added.<\/p>\n<p>With regard to preferential procurement, a programme that aims to increase the value of local purchases from 30% to 71% over five years, in FY21 (ended 30 June 2021), USD 19.1 million of our total expenditure on the procurement of goods and services for our operations was with companies registered and owned by Mozambicans, whose target was USD 17.1 million, exceeding our target for the year by 10%.<\/p>\n<p>With regard to preferential procurement, a programme that aims to increase the value of local acquisitions, around 70% (USD 19.1 million) of our total expenditures on acquisitions of goods and services for our operations were with companies registered in Mozambique, which exceeds our target for the year by almost 10%.<\/p>\n<p>Visibly happy with the communication space between Sasol and the SMEs, through roadshows, Valeriano Cabrita, a businessman in the hotel and catering area and CTA representative in Inhassoro, said that investing in the development of the local business community is investing in the economic development of the communities. \u201cWe appreciate this initiative from Sasol to organise these discussion sessions with the local businesspeople. We are very happy to have opportunities to clarify questions about we can provide services to Sasol.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/mozambique\">Mozambique<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Mozambique.
