Nedbank Fashion AcceleratorProgramme

The Nedbank Fashion Accelerator is a 12-month business growth programme designed to help ambitious South African fashion, clothing, furniture and decor businesses strengthen their operations, grow sustainably and prepare for larger local and international market opportunities. 

20 Businesses. 3 Provinces. One Fashion Forward Programme

What is it?

The programme helps 20 established businesses in Gauteng, KwaZulu-Natal and the Western Cape strengthen their operations, improve their systems and prepare for new commercial opportunities. It is open to apparel manufacturers, fashion designers, boutique brands, and businesses producing accessories, footwear and leather goods.

How

The programme empowers businesses to strengthen their systems and capabilities to compete in larger markets by focusing on key areas such as pricing, production planning, branding, compliance, financial management and sales readiness.

Purpose

Many promising businesses in these sectors struggle to access larger markets because they need stronger business systems, improved production planning and greater readiness to meet buyer requirements. The Nedbank Fashion Accelerator bridges this gap by preparing high-potential SMEs to become reliable, contract-ready suppliers.
