Financial pressure, falling sales and operational problems do not have to lead to business closure or job losses. Productivity SA works alongside your management and employees to identify the causes of distress, stabilise operations and build a practical recovery plan - nationally, at no direct cost to qualifying employers.
Distress rarely arrives all at once. It compounds. Recognising the pattern early gives your business more options - and gives your team a real chance at recovery.
Productivity SA's Business Turnaround & Recovery Programme has helped protect thousands of South African jobs while supporting employers through financial and operational distress. These are the aggregate outcomes reported by the Programme - audited and published.
Productivity SA works alongside your management and employees to identify the causes of distress and to develop a recovery plan that protects jobs while building a stronger, more competitive business.
On-site & remote
Promptique Trading approached Productivity SA facing the challenges that many SMEs quietly carry: employee skills gaps, weak marketing, unmanaged fleet costs, financial pressure and human-resources instability.
Productivity SA implemented wide-ranging staff training, developed a new marketing strategy, restructured the business model, introduced formal HR policies and installed strict fleet-management protocols. The turnaround was cocreated with the team, not imposed on them.
The first step is the hardest. Once you tell us about your business, the process is guided end-to-end - from assessment through implementation.
