ABRAHAM NELSON: Business and law enforcement must work together to ensure continuity

One of the key lessons from the July 2021 riots in KwaZulu-Natal and parts of Gauteng was the need for even closer collaboration among relevant stakeholders, from law enforcement to organised business, to ensure law and order and minimise disruption to economic activity during disturbances.

Using the lessons of the 2021 riots, business organisations such as the Consumer Goods Council of SA , private security companies and law enforcement co-ordinated to mitigate the potential effects and risks that could arise from the “national shutdown” called by the EFF.n particular, through the sharing of information and ideas, and through the SA Police Service's E2 project, there was maximum collaboration, which made it relatively easier to ensure law and order was maintained.

The success of these collaborative efforts demonstrates the importance of a multidisciplinary and stakeholder approach to addressing issues in the country. Through the CGCSA’s Consumer Goods Crime Risk Initiative, we have, and continue to work with the police, SA Revenue Service and private security sector to fight illicit trade, which is harming the economy and denying the fiscus much-needed revenue to fund government services that benefit the poor and vulnerable in particular.

The police have mounted several successful operations to seize illicit goods, particularly cigarettes and alcohol, worth millions of rand.
