# South African National Parks says more than 50-million-rand has been given to small businesses that supply goods and services within its procurement ecosystem. In partnership with Sanlam and I am an entrepreneur, the interest-free loans help businesses meet orders and manage cash flow. The initiative, which started as a ten-million-rand pilot in 2023, has helped create jobs, grow businesses and support economic inclusion. SANParks remains committed to expanding access to finance for more small businesses.
