Motseeng, from Taung in North West, says getting it right and winning in business comes from being involved in his grandmother’s small business.

She owned chickens and it was Motseeng’s responsibility to feed them."I was trying to help my grandmother. I sold sweets and, as I grew older, I sold t-shirts, had a food stall and public phone container and did events. I have always been selling,” he says.He wanted to learn skills that he could use effectively in future.

Motseeng opened the first Moja Chicken outlet in September that year. Apart from his childhood experience with chickens, he studied the market and understood what consumers wanted. Moja Chicken, which was first opened in Soweto, today has six franchises across Gauteng, KwaZulu-Natal, Limpopo, Mpumalanga and Northern Cape. Two more franchises will open soon.

“Among the staff are five people from historically disadvantaged backgrounds. I have made them permanent employees and aim to grow this number in the near future.”
