The Business Zone underwent an official assessment and verification of its BBBEE status by The Caird Group, an independent BEE Verification Agency. The firm achieved a level Four contributor in terms of Phase one and the draft of Phase Two of the BBBEE Codes of Good Practice.

From a BEE Procurement recognition level, The Business Zone scores 100%, being a level four, which entitles all its clients to claim R1.00 for every R1 spent with The Business Zone.

The Business Zone remains committed to improving in the next BEE Scorecard review in  areas such as Skills Development, Preferential Procurement, Enterprise and Social Development initiatives. This will ensure that The Business Zone achieves its BBBEE objective, which is to be a level one contributor in the foreseeable future.
