Bidcorp, the South African food services company that operates in more than two dozen countries, is finding its home market tough under the strain of endless power cuts. | News24_Business

Problems in Bidcorp’s domestic market extend beyond Eskom. Unemployment is almost 33%, the rand has weakened to record lows and benchmark interest rates have more than doubled since November 2021. Plus, bad debts among consumers are creeping higher and the country was added to the Financial Action Task Force’s so-called gray list in February for failures in combating illicit money flows.

Bidcorp said it’s closely monitoring credit risk in a few jurisdictions, although currency volatility had a positive affect on its results when translated to rand. And thanks to diversification away from South Africa, Bidcorp still expects to post record trading results for its full year. The company cited the devastating earthquakes in Turkey and short-term stock valuation issues in the Middle East and Chile as further challenges for its emerging-market operations.
