1. Company Profile
Who Are We?
We started in January 2000 under the banner of Isago
Management Consulting through an association of six
consultants. As the business environment grew and dynamics
changed Zwino Consulting was born to focus on providing
service excellence in a Southern African context. We are a
100% South African organisation we operate in all nine
provinces. We have a successful track record in a number of
Southern African organisations. Our consultants/associates
collectively have over 20 years of sound business advisory
consulting experience.
In view of the turbulent changes the business environment is
undergoing in South Africa, there is a need for a company of
South African individuals with private and public sector
experience that can face up to the challenges, hence Zwino
Consulting:

Tshivenda is one of the eleven official

means “Now” in Tshivenda. Our
decision to use this name underpins
our work ethic of output and results.
We are acutely aware of the financial
constraints facing our clients and
therefore we focus on fast and
efficient delivery on any
engagement.
