Township retailer serving a customer at a local spaza shop

SEDFA's Spaza Shop Support Fund is specifically designed to empower township-based informal retailers with access to finance, business tools, and development support.

The fund targets spaza shops and micro enterprises in township and rural areas, providing blended finance to help them formalise their operations, stock their shelves, and grow their businesses.
