Rustenburg Fresh Produce Market, a pioneering initiative by Freshlinq Markets, empowers small-scale farmers and emerging vendors by offering them a trading platform to showcase and sell their products at competitive rates.
Construction began in February 2023 and was completed on schedule one year later. Extensive work was carried out internally and externally to provide office space, ablution facilities, steel canopies at entrances, concrete hardstands, paving, landscaping, and a boundary fence and guardhouses to bolster security.
A crucial aspect of the project was linking the building to the municipal water supply and installing a comprehensive firefighting system incorporating sprinklers, fire tanks and a pump house.
RLB South Africa provided quantity surveying and project management services for the project, which was funded by The Impact Catalyst, a not-for-profit organisation driving socio-economic development through partnerships between government, civil society and the private sector.
In 2022, we were appointed as its preferred cost managers, providing services at a reduced rate as part of our CSR commitments. We aim to ensure that funding obtained by The Impact Catalyst is sufficient and applied as effectively as possible to ensure successful project delivery.
“In line with our social responsibilities, we eagerly anticipate further collaborations with The Impact Catalyst on essential projects aimed at addressing urgent community needs and ensuring a positive and lasting legacy"
