7. Proudly South African, the country’s national
Buy Local campaign, seeks to strongly
influence procurement in public and private
sectors, to increase local production,
influence consumers to buy local and
stimulate job creation. This is in line with
government's plans to revive South Africa’s
economy so that millions of jobs can be
created and unemployment can be decreased
under the New Development Plan.
Proudly South African fits hand-in-glove with
the broader national developmental agenda
and the Local Procurement Accord signed in
October 2011.
