The business has been profi table, with Refentse and Boitshepo sharing profi ts and losses equally, refl ecting their initial capital investments and contributions to the partnership. However, after years of operating in the competitive construction materials industry, the partners decided to liquidate the business. Their decision was infl uenced by a combination of factors, including changes in market demand, increasing production costs, and their desire to pursue other ventures. Having carefully evaluated offers for key assets, particularly the land, the building, manufacturing equipment and inventory on hand, they decided to accept the most favourable ones for the sale of the land, inventory and equipment. With this decision in place, they planned to initiate the simultaneous liquidation of the partnership on 1 June 2024.
