Client Feedback

Client Comments: First and foremost, I would like to take this opportunity to sincerely thank SEDFA for providing us with the much-needed equipment and for the generous, professional team who maintained consistent and supportive communication with my office throughout the entire process. Your commitment and assistance have been instrumental in overcoming significant challenges we faced.
Trademark Enterprise had long struggled to establish itself within the competitive space of plant hire and powered equipment due to lack of funds. Thanks to SEDFA, what once seemed impossible has now become a reality. Your support has enabled us to stand and start carving out a presence in the industry. While we are still in the progress of building our brand and gaining the trust of both local and private clients, the progress we’ve made is undeniable and promising.
Currently, our primary sources of income stem from capital projects around the district. Unfortunately, this financial year has posed unique challenges. Many projects have been placed on hold due to budget constraints and logistical issues. Despite these hurdles, we remain committed to managing our operations effectively and are placing increased focus on cultivating relationships with private clients to maintain a steady flow of business.
Our long-term vision goes beyond just profitability, we are driven by a mission to create jobs and minimize poverty within our community. At present, we are prod to have employed two permanent administrative employees, a driver, and an assistant. Additionally, we engage several casual workers who assist us on various construction projects. Every job created marks a step forward in fulfilling our social and economic objectives.
We deeply appreciate the valuable assistance from SEDFA and look forward to continuing to build and grow this business with your ongoing support. Together, we can make a meaningful difference in our district and beyond.
