Stokvel Times launched

"Stokvels by their very nature need to be celebrated as they are, we believe, the real nation builders in this country and we will continue to highlight their achievements and successes as they continue their positive effect on the local economy," comments White.

"We believe that access to information is the primary basis for self empowerment and, in this respect, Stokvel Times fulfils a very important need within our diverse communities" says Cameron Bramley, MD of Stokvel Media.

The ultimate goal of the publication is to assist stokvels in understanding the diverse financial options available and to highlight the powerful force the stokvels can command in the market.

In addition to this, Stokvel Times features editorial focusing on thought leadership and lifestyle ands trends. Distributed nationwide, it covers a range of serious and sensitive issues, including HIV/Aids and people infected and affected by this pandemic.

Bramley concludes: "We are in a true partnership with the stokvels and as such we are planning to involve as many of them as possible as future shareholders in this very successful company."
