Confidential Business Plan & Investment Memorandum
KwaCrete Ready Mix
A central ready-mix concrete batching plant for Gauteng — producing quality-assured ready-mix concrete and specialised mixes with delivery and pumping services, supported by a modern fleet and laboratory — structured as an investment-grade R44.0-million opportunity for senior lenders and equity investors.
South Africa’s concrete market is anchored by a sustained public-infrastructure investment cycle, yet ready-mix supply is logistics-bound — the short haul-radius of fresh concrete protects well-located operators from distant competition and creates defensible regional franchises. KwaCrete Ready Mix captures this with a central batching plant in Gauteng producing roughly 60 cubic metres per hour, supported by a fleet of six truck mixers, two concrete pumps and an on-site laboratory, supplying quality-assured standard and specialised mixes with delivery and pumping billed at a premium. An R44.0-million upfront raise (R18.0m equity and R26.0m term debt) plus an R8.0-million working-capital facility funds the plant, fleet and ramp — with EBITDA margins expanding from 4.6% to 20.4% as fixed costs are absorbed across rising volumes, a debt-service-cover ratio building from 0.33× to 4.17×, a 33.1% project IRR, a 38.4% equity IRR and an NPV of R38.1 million at a 16% discount rate, implying an enterprise value of approximately R123.6 million by FY2030.
