BLACK EMPOWERMENT; JOINT VENTURES

Stallion Security believe that to truly empower the historically disadvantaged South Africans, empowerment schemes should benefit the previously and currently disempowered people who are trying by their own efforts, to generate wealth. In this regard Stallion has played a major role in assisting people that fit this description and have and are still involved as follows:-

Assisting Small Businesses

The Stallion Security Group approach to this vital function is to empower the small business owner. Stallion Security has formed joint ventures with small to medium sized security businesses and established solid working relationships with various small businesses over the years, inter-alia:

Impumelelo Alarms and Security: Sylvester Mohlabane

Iso Le Sizwe: Jack Sibanda

Baemedi Security: Tembile Sangoni

With Stallion Security assisting in the following way,

• Financial
• Document and site assessment / requirements
• Recruitment and training of staff
• Operational infrastructure
• Management mentoring, coaching and back up
• Quality Management

Impumelelo Alarms and Security secured and serviced various contracts, including Bopeleng Medical Centres, Dalpark Clinic, Eskom and others.

Iso Le Sizwe
In 1995, Clive Zulberg met Jack Sibanda, who expressed a desire to run his own security company. Whilst his operational ability was adequate, his administrative skills were somewhat lacking, and his availability to funds for his venture were limited. Clive Zulberg injected capital and provided Mr Sibanda with the administrative function required to set up and establish "Iso Le Sizwe". As time passed, Jack established his own training centre, and now runs his business with no further external assistance.

Baemedi Security
Tembile Sangoni, the former Chief Executive of Baemedi Security, has had a long association with Stallion Security's Chief Executive, Clive Zulberg.

When Tembile and Clive first met, Tembile outlined the frustrations that his business had endured. Baemedi had tendered for and obtained contracts but was unable to deliver at the required levels of performance. Clive gave advice and assisted Tembile in developing a strategic plan for his business and also gave further managerial, administrative and operational guidance.

This ongoing process of skills transfer between Clive and Tembile eventually culminated in the partnership and formation of Amabubesi Security. Tembile and a consortium of black businessmen invested money and bought 25% of Stallion Security.

Tembile currently holds the position of Executive Director of Stallion and continues to spend most of his working time with Clive, acquiring the skills necessary for him to grow Stallion Security into one of the leading South African owned security companies.

The Beyers Naude Foundation

Stallion Security was involved in a major RDP project involving The Beyers Naude Foundation in an exercise to raise funds for the complete rebuilding of Alexandra Township. Rev. Beyers Naude credited Stallion Security as being one of the leading supporters in the development of this project.

Qulani Security

Stallion Security, by request of the African National Congress, structured a security company known as Qulani, for ex-MK cadres. Qulani Security is owned and managed by Sam Ncube situated in the Eastern Cape.

Stallion Security maintains management consulting involvement with Qulani. However, we must indicate that this entire venture is undertaken with no financial reward. Attached please find letter of reference (Annexure B). Should you require further references on this project details can be obtained.

Bursary Scheme

At the Diepsloot Informal Settlement & Alexandra Township Stallion Security has been offering bursaries to unemployed potential recruits. Recruitment staff spend a few days a month in both areas, marketing the security industry and our Company.

SANDF

We have dealt with the SANDF in attempting to assist people being retrenched by the SANDF, through offering them a career in the security industry.
