Our contribution to black economic empowerment
The Goscor Group fully concurs with the government’s sentiments regarding the importance of black economic empowerment as a critical underpinning for the stability of South Africa’s democracy, and the future development and success of the country.
We have adopted the government’s outlines for broad-based economic empowerment, and we are in the process of implementing the weighted scorecard as a measure of our contribution to B-BBEE.
