Dlamini-Zuma calls for radical economic transformation in funeral industry
20 September 2017
Durban – Former African Union chairperson Nkosazana Dlamini-Zuma has called for radical economic transformation in the funeral industry sector.
“You must be part of this radical economic transformation. We want to see you part of the entire value chain. We want to see a totally transformed industry. It is in our hands. We cannot expect anyone else to do it for us,” Dlamini-Zuma said on Tuesday.
She was speaking at the Funeral Indaba “women for business” gala dinner at the International Convention Centre (ICC) in Durban.
Dlamini-Zuma said that while SA had an active funeral sector, the transformation to big black business in the industry was slow.
