MISSION

To be committed to excellence and exemplary service and to strive for long term and strategic relationships with our clients by professionally and cost effectively offering the best service that will enhance both our reputation and our client’s. By so doing, contribute towards reducing unemployment and fostering the growing economy within South African.

PHILOSOPHY

WHISKAWAY is not just another SMME with great aspirations but unlimited potential to deliver. Besides the services listed above, our company vigorously seeks active participation in projects through strategic alliance with mainstream companies who are committed to Black Empowerment in the South Africa’s business sector. 

South Africa’s re-admission into the global economic community has resulted in increased competition and subsequent downsizing of many Public and Private operations. The national focus on SMME development has created a rapidly growing SMME sector, predominantly characterized by the previously disempowered. WHISKAWAY hopes to grow through governments’ affirmative procurement programmes which have been developed to provide opportunities for the historically disadvantaged masses.

STRATEGIC POSITIONING

Our company envisages positioning itself as one of the leading and successful Procurement and Professional Services Companies in South Africa. While our corporate gifts and a small percentage of apparel are imported from various overseas countries, WHISKAWAY prefers locally manufactured goods in support of Proudly South African with our very own labels.

VALUES

We are a professional, progressive and integrated company that ensures and promotes the interests of our clients.

CONCLUSION

Centrally situated, WHISKAWAY is capable of servicing clients within Johannesburg and surrounding areas. We prioritise service delivery and undertake all projects with enthusiasm and dedication.

Our company has a track record of excellent service and has repeat business and referrals from existing clients.
