competition and a decrease in market capitalisation.

“At the moment the South African construction industry is very unsettled,” states Clinton Crowie, Executive Director of Enza Construction (Pty) Ltd. Due to a lack of spending and deteriorating economic growth, the situation for many companies has become bleak. However, despite this gloomy backdrop, Enza Construction itself remains very optimistic for the future.

“We’ve taken a different approach and have managed to grow substantially in the last three years,” explains Crowie. “We’ve remained a solutions orientated business, allowing us to stay much more sustainable in the current environment when compared to our peers.”

Enza Construction was launched in 2003 to service the group’s internal construction needs and has since evolved into one of the leading black construction companies in South Africa, with a turnover in excess of R1.5 billion and including a civils, housing and turnkey design and construct division,” Crowie explains.

While the firm has proudly executed a number of projects on a traditional

procurement basis, its Enza Plus division allows it to come into its own as a value-added contractor.

Enza Plus is a progressive, holistic business concept, new to the construction industry. It has taken the traditional approach to meeting clients’ needs and revolutionised the thinking behind this, now offering turnkey design and construct solutions. Design and construct

contracts have the benefit of de-risking the project for the client while still providing price and delivery certainty.

A collaborative approach at the onset of the project ensures that opportunity is not lost, risk is mitigated and the commercial benefit of the project is substantially improved for all parties.

“This is where we see ourselves now and is something we hope to further capitalise on in future.”

PRECOOL MANUFACTURING Precool Manufacturing – 50 years of quality insulated panels Precool manufactures and supplies insulated panel systems and doors throughout Africa.

Insulated panels have several applications which can range from solutions for smaller insulated telecom shelters and server rooms to very large food processing facilities and freezer complexes (sometimes at sizes of 20,000 square metres) like In2Foods’ new mega centre in Kempton Park built

by Enza Construction.

Precool has successfully completed projects across Africa sending our skilled crews and experienced team leaders to assist and complete all our quality projects.

Enza’s projects cover multiple industries

Project perfection

Providing an extensive range of solutions, from retail shopping centres and commercial offices to healthcare and education facilities, this alternative approach has paid dividends on multiple fronts.

Such is evident in Enza Construction being recognised at the South African Institutes of Black Professionals (SAIBPP) Awards where it secured the Disruptor award for its iconic R1 billion Steve Tshwete District Hospital Project in Middelburg, as well as the African Property Awards “Public Services Development South Africa” Award for Council Chambers together with our client The City of Joburg Property Company.

A 220-bed public hospital situated in a small mining town 150 kilometres east of Johannesburg, the facility is currently under construction, with Enza set to deliver end-to-end solutions on a turnkey design and build basis.

For us it’s exciting to be able to take the government’s challenges and provide a onestop solution for the Department of Health. In 2020 we will be handing over a hospital that is truly revolutionary, fully operational and includes state-of-the-art equipment”

In addition to the above, Precool Manufacturing also designs and creates insulated panels for the poultry industry, large freezer facilities, fish processing plants, insulated pack houses, meat processing facilities, retail and commercial cold and freezer complexes, staff housing for mines, and sizeable construction projects. Specialised fruit drying technology is also available.

Our insulated doors add a dimension of quality to complete our offering for our clients. This quality finish can be seen in the door gear we use, which has been from the same supplier for over four decades and is supplied by Fermod – a leading company in the production of advanced door hardware for the temperature controlled sector.

The continent of Africa is the most sought-after location for agri-business.

Access to fertile soil, arable areas, vast water resources and favourable climate have placed Africa at the forefront of the world’s best destinations for quality food production.

Given that effective food production requires high levels of skill, working with experienced partners plays a significant role in managing an efficient production process.

Precool Manufacturing has a wealth of experience in providing the necessary solutions for food related cooling chains, something which is crucial when building a successful and energy conscious refrigeration system.

Our systems provide an efficient energy saving solution that will create successful agricultural and food transactions and our exposure to modern innovations in seedling production and Xtend fruit packaging has recently enabled us to further enhance our offering to the food sector. Trust Precool Manufacturing to partner with you when choosing your next cooling related project.

South Africa’s social enabler

Enza has a proactive approach to assisting in the development of communities and the implementation of localisation targets which many have seen as challenging. The company’s approach is holistic as it tries to implement initiatives that address community needs together with corporate citizenship. In 2018, the firm launched the Enza Training Academy, a first for a company of its size but most importantly an academy that primarily services the community.

The Enza Training Academy is a mobile academy, currently based in Middelburg since it launched in July 2018.

It offers bricklayer and plasterer trades, both of which are accredited with the relevant South African regulatory framework, as the academy is competency based. Enza has also applied for two additional trades and once approved, the mobile academy will rotate the trades amongst its different projects, enabling both multiskilling of communities as well as diverse trade offerings to the communities.

ENZA CONSTRUCTION’S PROJECT PORTFOLIO INCLUDES, BUT IS NOT LIMITED TO… Statistics South Africa, Head Office, Gauteng Private public partnership with the Department of Statistics South Africa, providing them with new office accommodation (40,000 metres squared GLA) for 1,400 people, as well as a new data processing centre. Valued at R1.3 billion.

Bridge City precinct, Kwamashu A 650,000 square metre development including a turnkey retail shopping centre, associated transportation facilities, residential facilities and more, valued at approximately R1.5 billion over a five-year period.

Council Chambers, Johannesburg Includes the construction and entire fit-out of a building that suitable accommodates 400 people. This project was completed in 2016 and was valued at around R300 million.

Bokpoort Concentrated Solar Plant, Upington Awarded an EPC contract for the design and construction of a 50 MW solar plant, Enza Construction helped to deliver the largest thermal storage system for a plant of its size and capacity. This project, valued at around R3.3 billion in total, was completed in 2015 and set a new African record for the continuous supply of electricity.

District Hospital, Middelburg Currently under construction, this project will include a 220bed hospital, training centre, 600-set auditorium, 332 beds for student and staff accommodation, and associated recreational facilities. It is estimated the total cost of the project will exceed R1 billion.

Mpumalanga International Fresh Produce Market A project valued at approximately R1.2 billion, this facility is currently under construction, but upon completion will provide local farmers with the opportunity to start trading commercially, helping to transform their lives.

Enza Construction was founded in 2003 and has remained a South African mainstay ever since

Enza’s team conducting groundworks

Community building is a vital part of the company’s work

“We have also employed specialised social facilitators to try and understand the frustrations of local people and provide solutions to these, allowing disadvantaged individuals to thrive in areas where they would not normally be given opportunities,” states Crowie.

“This has never been a regulatory requirement for us, but rather a core value of the business.

“From supporting old age facilities, aiding schools and backing local
