How can The Green House offerings bring value to you and your business/organisation?

ENTREPRENEURS AND BUSINESS OWNERS
The Green House offers a unique entrepreneur-centric business support infrastructure. Unlike conventional programs that revolve around organizational processes, where entrepreneurs must conform to predefined systems, The Green House stands out for its flexibility. We prioritize supporting entrepreneurs throughout their entire business journey, not just with isolated offerings.
GOVERNMENT AND CORPORATE FUNDERS
The Green House presents the most scalable Enterprise and Supplier Development (ESD) solution in South Africa. While scaling ESD initiatives often faces challenges, The Green House, designed by the Greenhouse Foundation, overcomes these obstacles to deliver high-quality impact at scale.
