In the grasslands just south of the Vaal River,
Sasolburg, the birthplace of Sasol emerged
73 years ago with the inception of Sasol.
Both the regions face multiple social and development
challenges such as unemployment, substance abuse
and other socio-economic issues.
The Metsimaholo Local Municipality has a population
of about 163 000 people and includes areas such as
Deneysville, Metsimaholo, Oranjeville, Refengkgotso,
Sasolburg, Vaalpark and Zamdela.
We believe there are opportunities for growth that
require expertise and long-term partnerships. Sasol
invests in creating shared value for the people of the
Free State and Gauteng North, by supporting strategic
economic drivers, skills and capacity development
and by involving our communities and employees in
value creation, to enable employability and increase
potential for self-employment through portable skills
useful in communities.
Ekandustria is in Region 7 of the City of Tshwane,
the area has a population of about 110 000 people
which includes areas such as Dark City, Ekangala,
Rethabiseng, Zithobeni and Bronkhorstspruit.
