  New Business Trends Family Business

BizAssist.co.za has identified a marked increase in the number of family-owned businesses in South Africa. We aim to deliver content, news and events that will enable family-run businesses to prosper.

Think of successful family businesses and the likes of Raymond Ackerman and Anton Rupert come to mind. But even though family business makes up 50% of the economic growth of South Africa, few have managed to stay in business as long as these icons have. Statistics reveal that only 30% of family businesses succeed in handing over the reigns to the next generation.
