Executive Chairman and Founder Josua Mpho Mashiloane, and Founder of the Nkabo Group of companies Mr. Zwelibanzi Ndlovu says that the acquisition has given his organisation direct exposure to a well-established business that has the size and scale to play a key role in critical growth sectors of the South African economy. “It also supports our strategic goal to become a major black industrial player in South Africa.
​
At the beginning of 1994, Mr. Zwelibanzi Ndlovu took the decisive step of going back to college to study in order to make a meaningful contribution to the growth of the new South African dream. Upon completion in 1998, he and other unemployed graduates came together to form Rea Dira Projects. However, the other members left to seek formal employment leaving only the current director to grow the business.
Rea Dira Projects is a 100% black owned business operating in the various provinces of South Africa. Our strength lies in our ability to adapt quickly to the environments within which we are from time to time expected to perform in.

For this reason, within the settlement, provision has also been made for public open spaces, community facilities which includes schools, a library and transportation networks. We recognise the importance of connecting people to their places of work and to industry, and so a strong and reliable transport network system is of utmost important to us in this project.
