We build the businesses
the system overlooked.

Retlhalefile Holding Group is a South African development consultancy, established in 2020. This is the record.

The company

We put the client — a person, an organisation, a community — at the centre of the intervention, not at the end of it.

Retlhalefile Holding Group has worked in development consulting since 2020. In that time we have been engaged by provincial government, by two of the country’s major mining operations, by a financial-industry association, and by the training institutions that sit between them.

We work in two directions at once: helping institutions design, fund and run enterprise development programmes, and coaching the entrepreneurs those programmes are meant to reach.

The work is built around rural black women and youth entrepreneurs — the founders most likely to be told no by a system that was not designed with them in mind, and most likely to succeed once the paperwork and the strategy stop working against them.

Two chairs, and a business
that has stopped moving.

Most of the work starts here — not with a strategy document, but with an honest account of where the business actually is.
