Focused on transformation & social upliftment, BT Industries is proudly Level 4 B-BBEE certified

At BT Industries, we take our commitment to social responsibility and economic development seriously. Alongside various outreach and support initiatives, we are proud of our B-BBEE Level 4 status, and are continuing to uplift those around us in any way we can.

Kuhlekwethu Primary School

We recently identified Kuhlekwethu Primary School as an ideal beneficiary for our outreach efforts. This Durban-based primary school provides quality education to over 900 learners, 200 of whom are orphans and over 650 of whom rely on government grants for their schooling. We noticed that, despite the amazing work the school was doing, it lacked the funding necessary to perform some much-needed maintenance and construction on their classrooms.

We supported the school with a generous donation to help them renovate their classrooms and fix existing structures, ensuring that all their learners can get the education they need in a positive environment.

Bursary programme

BT Industries is also deeply invested in upskilling the next generation, giving them the tools they need to embark on successful careers, while contributing to the socioeconomic development of our country. As part of this commitment, we have sponsored three bursaries worth a total of R100 000 for students in the Durban area.

These bursaries have been awarded to deserving students who may otherwise not have had the chance to get the high-quality education they need to kickstart their career.

Learnership programme

We have also employed some NewBridge Graduate Institute students to complete a 12-month learnership programme at our Johannesburg warehouse, giving them practical training alongside theoretical instruction so they can gain experience and expertise in the field.

Learners will benefit from crucial warehouse and logistics skills training, from packaging and quality checks to receiving and dispatching, as well as dedicated training from an experienced instructor.

We look forward to continuing to support and uplift those in need through various outreach initiatives, contributing to the socioeconomic development of the beautiful country we call home.
