We are delighted to announce that Bidvest Prestige Group has been awarded a “LEVEL 2 BBBEE CONTRIBUTOR” status! We are extremely proud of this achievement and believe that this progression from a Level 4 Contributor in 2008, to a Level 3 Contributor in 2009 and now a Level 2 Contributor in 2010 demonstrates Bidvest Prestige Group's commitment to transformation and continuous improvement within the empowerment sphere.

Bidvest Prestige Group's LEVEL 2 CONTRIBUTOR status and classification as a VALUE ADDING supplier means that our clients can claim 156% of their procurement spend with Prestige as BBBEE spend. Furthermore, Bidvest Prestige Group's 156% BBBEE procurement recognition exceeds that of a Level 1 supplier that is not a value adding supplier.

Our commitment to transformation will continue into 2010 and we look forward to growing our partnership with our valued clients and pioneering change in the Contract Cleaning Industry.
