MTN SME HUB

Link to a world of resources.

In the bustling landscape of South Africa's economy, small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) stand as the backbone, driving growth and fostering innovation. These dynamic entities, numbering in the tens of thousands, play a pivotal role, constituting 91% of formalised businesses and employing around 60% of the labour force, contributing significantly to the GDP. Particularly in rural areas where entrepreneurship thrives, SMEs provide an essential lifeline with 71% of local jobs relying on their entrepreneurial spirit.

Despite their monumental impact, SMEs often face hurdles in accessing crucial resources and knowledge. Recognising this challenge, MTN has embarked on a mission to empower SMEs, aligning with its vision to democratise connectivity across South Africa and the continent. Through innovative products and services, MTN has been a catalyst for SME growth, offering tailored solutions like Made for Skhokho, a prepaid business offer providing essential telecommunications services at accessible rates.
