As SA bleeds jobs, four new companies are investing a combined R49m at the Coega industrial development zone (IDZ) in Nelson Mandela Bay and creating employment for at least 100 people.

President Cyril Ramaphosa, who attended the event in Tshwane on Monday, described it as a clear statement of confidence in SA’s future.

Ford International Markets Group operations director Andrea Cavallaro said R10.3bn of the R15.8bn would be spent on upgrading Ford Southern Africa’s Silverton vehicle assembly plant in Tshwane into a state-of-the-art facility on par with anything else in the Ford world.
