About us
Built on quality work and customer satisfaction.
Setshabelo Trading provides professional, client-focused civil engineering, construction solutions and mining projects from our base in Bloemfontein.
Our story
The company was formed and registered in 2008 as a close corporation, and later converted to a (Pty) Ltd in 2013 at the behest of government’s plea to emerging black entrepreneurs to carve themselves a niche in the mainstream economy, with the view to growing the economy that would in turn create job opportunities.
Since then we have worked with municipalities, provincial departments, housing developers and private clients, delivering roads, buildings, water infrastructure and mining support services. As an employee-owned company, the people on site have a direct stake in the quality of the work they hand over.

How we work
Integrity
We deliver on our promises, and we say so plainly when something changes.
Workmanship
Quality is checked on site, every day, not signed off at the end.
Transparency
Clients see progress, cost and programme through live project reporting.
Empowerment
Employee ownership, local labour and skills transfer on every contract.

Project reporting
Clients are never left guessing.
Every contract is monitored through our internal reporting platform: daily site reports, labour and plant records, progress against programme, safety and quality observations, and cost tracking against budget. Authorised client representatives can be given access to the portal for their own projects.
