Within seven years the company has grown from a start-up to becoming South Africa’s largest on-demand home services company.
“Economies are starting to recover, but we also know that we have a really great product that demonstrably improves life for both customers and home service providers,” said Pandor.
“Clients are provided with a list of pre-vetted, trustworthy home service providers to choose from, and payment is made through the platform. Providers benefit, too, as they can find work opportunities in areas and at times that suit them and, overall, earn higher than market rates,” SweepSouth said.
“There are so many factors that go into choosing where to go next, so we decided to look at countries where people experience the same sort of home-care needs South Africans required when SweepSouth was started,” said Pandor. Earlier this year, SweepSouth released its annual Report on Pay and Working Conditions for Domestic Workers across Africa, including Kenya and Nigeria for the first time. The report’s findings dovetailed with their new launch, highlighting the extent to which Nigerian domestic workers have been impacted by Covid-19.
