We encourage listeners to nominate small businesses that exemplify dedication, innovation, and community spirit. Whether you are an owner or simply know of a business that goes above and beyond, this is your opportunity to shine a light on those who deliver exceptional goods and services with a smile.
The 702 Small Business Awards are not just about recognition, they are about transformation. By nominating a small business, you could help them unlock incredible opportunities that could change their lives and businesses forever. The winner will be announced on air during the Breakfast with Bongani Bingwa show on 17 April 2025, and the finalists will be profiled on both 702 and the Primedia Plus website.
Small businesses are vital to the economic landscape of Gauteng, creating jobs and fostering innovation. MTN understands the unique challenges faced by these enterprises and is committed to empowering them with tailored solutions, reliable connectivity, and the right tools to thrive. Our partnership with 702 aims to highlight the significance of SMEs and provide them with the recognition they deserve.
To participate, simply visit the Primedia Plus website to complete the nomination form. The qualifying criteria are as follows:
Entries will close on 10 April 2025, and the judging panel, comprised of representatives from MTN and 702, will ensure a fair evaluation process.
The grand prize winner will receive a R200,000 generic advertising package from 702, along with office space valued at R450,000 for a 12-month period, located in the bustling areas of Rosebank or Sandton. The first and second runner-ups will each be awarded a R100,000 advertising package on 702, providing them with the platform to elevate their business visibility.
This is not just an awards ceremony, it is a celebration of resilience, creativity, and community spirit. We invite all Gauteng residents to engage with this initiative and help us honour those small businesses that make a significant impact in our lives.
