This morning, Monday, 25 June, Premier Helen Zille and Finance, Economic Development and Tourism Minister Alan Winde will attend a ribbon-cutting ceremony to launch a new call centre in Woodstock.
The call centre's establishment is the result of a partnership between the UK's largest mobile network operator, Everything Everywhere, and Merchants, a subsidiary of Dimension Data, and represents a significant investment in the business process outsourcing (BPO) sector in the Western Cape. BPO is considered a strategic growth sector of the Western Cape economy, particularly in light of its potential to create employment opportunities for youth.
