InvestSA EC One Stop Shop
Welcome to the One Stop Shop, Eastern Cape
The InvestSA One Stop Shop initiative is geared towards providing investors with services to reduce government red tape when establishing a business. It is part of the government’s drive to become investor-friendly by improving the business environment, lowering the cost of doing business, and making the process easier.
​
ECDC is mandated to operate the One Stop Shop in the Western Cape, which streamlines the investment value chain for medium to large companies looking to invest in South Africa, making it easier and faster to invest in Cape Town and the province.
The centre hosts relevant government departments and state-owned entities to help investors and exporters negotiate the regulations and administration to obtain various approvals, licences, authorisations, registrations and/or permits.
