Our Transformation Journey

As part of our commitment to enabling empowerment in everything we do, we are proud to have achieved a Level 1 Broad-based Black Economic Empowerment (B-BBEE) rating. We also continue to seek more ways to extend our impact on empowerment. 

How Our Score Was Achieved

This score was awarded to Edge Growth on the basis that it is an empowering supplier through its three entities and is under majority black ownership.

Our 57% equity shareholders include African Rainbow Capital (Pty) Ltd, Maggie Mojapelo and our Edge Growth Employee Share Ownership (ESOP) Trust that benefits top black performers at the company.
