Procurement
Through persistent and focused preferential procurement initiatives, Trencon has built a reliable supply chain, which forms a key contribution to our ongoing success under tremendously competitive market conditions.
It is the policy of Trencon to promote BEE by striving to improve the current inequalities facing emerging businesses in South Africa.

- Enhance Trencon’s procurement status by encouraging suppliers to become contributors to B-BBEE and to improve their own contribution levels.
