1. Determine Your Business Category
   Check whether your business is an EME, QSE, or a larger enterprise based on your turnover.
2. Obtain a B-BBEE Certificate or Affidavit

• EMEs can obtain a free B-BBEE affidavit from a Commissioner of Oaths. This document serves as proof of compliance and can be used when applying for tenders or contracts.
• QSEs and larger businesses must undergo verification by an accredited B-BBEE verification agency to receive a certificate.

3. Improve Your Score
   If you want to boost your B-BBEE level, focus on areas like:

• Hiring Practices: Increase the representation of black employees in leadership roles.
• Supplier Partnerships: Work with black-owned suppliers to improve your enterprise development score.
• Community Contributions: Support local initiatives, such as funding school programs or sponsoring community events.
