The Velvet Cake Company in Bellville is in possession of a CIPC certificate, which states that it had registered as an essential service business during the lockdown period.

“This is in line with similar suppliers in our industry, supplying baked goods – from doughnuts, rusks, cupcakes, cakes, etc – to retailers and individuals.”

On Friday, Van Zyl wrote that the result of ceasing operations meant that 46 employees will receive no income. “The operation of any essential service is subject to full compliance with the applicable lockdown regulations and that the company falls within the scope of essential services as defined in the regulations.”

“It is a criminal offence for any business to continue operating during the lockdown period if it is not providing an essential service, as defined in the applicable regulations and direction, unless such business can be operated using work-from-home arrangements. It is also a criminal offence for any business which misrepresents the nature of its operations in order to obtain a CIPC certificate,” he warned.
