⛽ Fuel Prices Set to Rise Again in June: What Businesses Need to Know.

South African businesses are once again anticipating increased fuel costs, with June's price hikes expected to further strain operating expenses within the transport and logistics sector.

Experts predict Petrol to increase by R2.20* and at least R3* more for diesel. 😱

Government’s temporary fuel levy relief is being phased down in June, increasing the general fuel levy on both petrol and diesel.

The challenge isn’t only the increase itself, it’s the timing.⌛

Fuel is one of the few business expenses that can’t wait. Trucks still need to move. Deliveries still need to happen. Clients still expect service levels to remain the same.

💡 Funding as a Cash Flow Tool
Short-term business funding, invoice discounting, and working capital solutions can give transport and logistics businesses breathing room during periods of rising operating costs.

Instead of waiting 30–90 days for invoices to be paid while fuel expenses climb daily, businesses can unlock cash flow now and maintain momentum.

The companies that stay ahead are the ones that plan early, strengthen cash flow, and create enough flexibility to absorb short-term pressure without affecting operations.

• The average cost of a data breach in SA is over R53 million

The risk is real, but so is the opportunity to protect and strengthen your business.

South African SMEs are about to feel the squeeze 🙈💸

From 1 April, we’re facing a double hit:
⚡ An 8.76% electricity increase approved by NERSA
⛽ Estimated fuel hikes of up to R4/litre (petrol) and R7.15/litre (diesel)

The knock-on effect? Rising costs across transport, food, logistics, and manufacturing — putting even more pressure on already tight margins.

So how can SMEs stay ahead of this?

Here are 3 practical ways to mitigate the impact:

1️⃣ Cash flow is your best defence
Don’t let unpaid invoices sit. The faster you convert receivables into cash, the more resilient your business becomes.

2️⃣ Track every rand
Now is the time for a thorough review of income and expenses. Small leaks add up quickly in times like these.

3️⃣ Incentivise early payments
Encourage clients to settle sooner by offering early payment discounts — improving your liquidity without taking on additional debt.

The key is simple: be proactive.
Tighten where you can, plan ahead, and stay agile.

Uncertain times don’t have to mean unprepared businesses.

Budget 2026: A Positive Shift for SMEs

The 2026 Budget Speech brings encouraging news for small and medium-sized businesses, with several measures aimed at easing pressure on business owners and supporting growth across key sectors.

4 Key Highlights:

📊 No new tax increases – The withdrawal of proposed tax hikes helps maintain business confidence and financial stability.

📊 Higher VAT threshold – From 1 April 2026, the VAT registration threshold will increase from R1 million to R2.3 million, reducing compliance pressure for many smaller businesses.

📊 More room to reinvest – Adjustments to Capital Gains Tax exclusions and improved retained earnings could allow businesses to reinvest more into growth and expansion.

📊 Major infrastructure investment – Government plans to invest over R1 trillion in public infrastructure over the medium term, which could stimulate sectors such as construction, logistics, and commercial property.

Overall, the budget signals clear support for entrepreneurs and SME owners, with a focus on enabling business growth and long-term economic development.

Which of these plans are you most excited about in terms of making an impact on your business?

Most people think secured funding only means property.

That’s not the full picture.

Many business owners already hold assets that could be leveraged - they just don’t realise they qualify, or they’ve never had the right lending partner.

The key isn’t just what you own, but how it’s structured and assessed.

If you’ve ever assumed secured funding wasn’t an option for you, it might be worth taking a second look.

💸Apply for a loan, and we can help you compare offers from trusted secured finance lenders
