What’s your honest opinion on our official squad announcement for the ?

28/05/2026

The Border Management Authority has just achieved what is likely the single biggest breakthrough against the drug trade in South African history, by intercepting a consignment at Beitbridge valued at nearly R1 billion. (You read that right).

Yesterday, an intelligence-driven operation coordinated out of our National Targeting Centre identified a truck travelling through Zimbabwe to Beitbridge. Upon arrival, the BMA was ready and waiting for it. The truck was intercepted and examined through the sophisticated truck scanner on site, with a hidden compartment discovered. Working over 8 hours, the BMA patiently dismantled the truck until a substance was discovered that was confirmed to be methaqualone, also known as ABBA, commonly used in the manufacture of mandrax.

The Hawks and K9 units were called in, with 713 000 grams of the substance seized at an estimated value of R998 200 000. Just under R1 billion.

Three Malawian suspects were arrested and taken to the Musina Police Station, with the Hawks to conduct further investigations.

This historic breakthrough in the fight against smuggling and drugs vividly demonstrates that the combination of intelligence-led investigations, digital transformation, and the commitment of the BMA is systematically rebuilding the rule of law at our borders! 🇿🇦

How To Register Your Own Business in South Africa 🇿🇦 | Step-by-Step CIPC Guide for Beginners

Starting your own business in South Africa may seem overwhelming at first, but registering your company through the CIPC is actually easier than most people think. Whether you want to start an online business, beauty brand, clothing store, catering business, digital agency, or side hustle — this guide will help you officially register your business the right way.

What You Need Before Registering Your Business

Before starting your CIPC business registration, make sure you have:

✔️ South African ID
✔️ Active cellphone number & email
✔️ Physical address
✔️ 1–4 business name ideas
✔️ Bank card for payment
✔️ Director information (if applicable)

Step 1: Create a CIPC Account

Visit the official CIPC eServices portal or BizPortal and create an account.

You’ll need to:

* Register with your ID number
* Verify your email/OTP
* Create login details

💡 Tip: BizPortal is often easier for first-time business owners.

Step 2: Reserve Your Business Name

Choose a unique business name that matches your brand and industry.

Examples:

* Beauty business
* Clothing brand
* Digital marketing agency
* Construction company
* Cleaning services

Submit up to 4 name options in case some are unavailable.

💡 SEO Business Tip: Choose a business name people can easily search for online and remember.

Step 3: Register Your Company

Select:
✅ Private Company ((Pty) Ltd)

Then complete:

* Director details
* Business address
* Contact information
* Share information

Most startups use the standard MOI (Memorandum of Incorporation).

Step 4: Upload Supporting Documents

You may need:

* Certified ID copy
* Director consent forms
* Proof of address

Ensure all documents are clear and readable.

Step 5: Pay the Registration Fee

Current estimated fees:

* Company registration: ±R175
* Name reservation: ±R50

After payment, your application is submitted to CIPC for approval.

Step 6: Receive Your Registration Documents

Once approved, you’ll receive:
✔️ Company Registration Certificate
✔️ Registration Number
✔️ MOI Documents

Keep these documents safe — you’ll need them for banking and tax purposes.

Step 7: Open a Business Bank Account

Take your registration documents to your preferred bank to open a business account.

💡 Business Tip: Never mix personal and business finances. It makes accounting and tax season much easier.

Step 8: Register for SARS Tax

Most companies automatically receive an income tax number through CIPC.

Depending on your business, you may later need:

* VAT Registration
* PAYE
* UIF

What a beautiful soul 🤍

Creashy Maart, a 19 year old from Mitchells Plain, donated R10,000 meant for her own treatment to the Kids Can Cancer Foundation to help two young children in Blikkiesdorp battling cancer. The funds went towards repairing the leaking roofs of four year old Layla Blaauw, who has stage 4 neuroblastoma, and one year nine month old Matayo, who is fighting leukaemia.

Despite her own health struggles, including lung issues since infancy, a double lung transplant last year, and a recent diagnosis of Kaposi sarcoma, Maart said her focus is on inspiring others and giving hope. She shared that the support from strangers has been overwhelming and that her message is to keep fighting and help those who cannot speak for themselves.

Foundation founder Kaashief Lakay described her donation as deeply moving, explaining that her kindness has brought warmth and dignity to the children. He said Creashy has reminded everyone of true love, courage and humanity.

Let’s take a moment to celebrate our co-founders. 🤍

Seven years of marriage today.

At just 23 years old, they took a leap of faith, not only to start a family but to build a brand that South Africa knows today as The Hood Kitchen.

Through hard work, sacrifice, dedication and unwavering faith, they’ve come such a long way as husband and wife, parents and business partners.

Rooted in Christ through every season.

May they continue to have the courage, creativity and determination to spark new beginnings while sustaining and strengthening everything they’ve already built together.

Two people who genuinely love community, uplifting others and pouring into people, even while still building themselves.

They say the first seven years are the hardest and they truly threw themselves into the deep end by starting a family and a business all at once.

Yet somehow, through every challenge, they still managed to thrive, smile and keep choosing each other.

The foundation has now been built.. strong, steady and rooted in Christ.

Here’s to many more years together and we cannot wait to see what’s next for our co-founders.
