Can you briefly tell us a bit about yourself including your full name
My name is Juanita van der Merwe, business owner, wife and mother of two. I studied journalism after school and immediately started working in the NPO sector after varsity. I have no business degree or background.
2) Can you please tell us about your business, when it was established and what you do?
Little Green Number is a social business focused on sustainable job creation and saving the planet, one billboard at a time. Billboards have nowhere to go, so we upcycle them into beautiful reusable products. It was established in 2012, but have been running as a charity since 2002. We have a triple bottom line, meaning we focus on People, Planet and Profit.
