BUSINESS MAVERICK ANALYSIS: Megafauna stalemate calls for fresh thinking as CITES conference ends By Ed Stoddard EdStoddardZA

South Africa is home to the vast majority of the world’s white rhinos, and around half of them, or 7,000, are owned by private ranchers, according to the Private Rhino Owners’ Association .

A proposal at the latest Conference of the Parties of the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species by Eswatini to sell its stockpiles – a sort of trial balloon also floated at the previous CITES – was rejected, as was a proposal led by Botswana seeking to loosen restrictions on the trade in ivory.

Variations on these themes have overshadowed CITES’ debates for decades, partly because discussions are dominated by governments and NGOs who often remain welded to outmoded ideas. This had lead to stalemate and frustration on the part of southern African policymakers, as well as private sector actors in the region.

Business Maverick: Distell’s African cylinders are firingFor years Shoprite’s Africa operations were the envy of South African business executives following the retailer’s slow and measured investment across the continent. However, as former Shoprite CEO Whitey Basson was fond of saying, Africa is not for sissies as the Africa promise proved slow to materialise. Many SA firms, including Shoprite, Tiger Brands, Woolworths, Consolidated Investment Ltd, suffered as volatile currencies and economies (and questionable investments), retarded their expectations. At first glance, it seemed liquor company Distell was to meet the same fate, but a closer look suggests the opposite is the case.

BUSINESS MAVERICK: SA has probably dodged a recession, which is about the best the economy can do at the momentSecond-quarter 2019 GDP data due on Tuesday 3 September, will probably show that South Africa dodged a recession after a sharp contraction in Q1.
