South African private sector activity rose slightly in January as the Omicron wave of Covid-19 cases receded, lifting demand and stabilising new business, a survey showed on Thursday.

Still, supply chain challenges remained acute, with a number of businesses struggling to stock the inputs they need while facing sharp inflationary pressures for materials and transport.
