My journey into business began during the COVID-19 pandemic. At the time, my younger sister had started a small bag-selling business while at university. She sourced her stock from China, and I became the one behind the scenes-purchasing from WeChat sellers, Taobao, and Pinduoduo, then coordinating shipments back to South Africa. It was through this experience that I discovered my passion. I realized I wanted to be part of something bigger, one of the world’s most essential industries: logistics and international trade.
There is a growing demand, especially back home, for importing goods from China. I saw an opportunity not just to meet that need, but to build a bridge, connecting people to products and supporting entrepreneurs in their own ventures. During COVID, many South Africans were relocating, and my business grew as they needed reliable shipping solutions for their
personal belongings and business goods.Every small business is a story of risk, resilience and the belief that something great can grow from something small.
Shipping with Vonani specializes in transporting goods – both personal and commercial, between countries via sea or air.
We currently offer services from China to South Africa and from South Africa to China. I’m excited to share that we’ve recently expanded our routes to include Zimbabwe and Zambia as well.
This business has not only transformed my life, but it’s allowed me to serve communities across borders and empower others through global trade.
Thank you for this incredible recognition.
