Award recipient prospers

I’m Bheki Kunene, 27 years old and the founder of an award-winning design agency in Guguletu, South Africa called, Mind Trix Media. Our services include: graphic design, web design, search engine optimization and digital media. Mind Trix Media was honored to be the recipient of Acacia Global’s very first Business Award in 2013.

The microloan Mind Trix Media received as part of the award has played a significant role in the development of our business. It has helped us render a better service because we are faster and able to process more orders. This meant that sales increased and we were able to hire new staff members to join our team.

The ripple effect of this investment made us as a brand to acquire bigger accounts and clients. We currently do work in South Africa, Vietnam, Zimbabwe, Angola, England and the United States.

Over the years we have seen the company consistently win awards and acquire major recognition both locally and internationally. In 2015 alone, we received the following recognition:

• Hennessy Business Man of the Year Award

• Best Young Entrepreneur Award

• Forbes 30 under 30 Most Promising African Entrepreneurs

• House and Leisure Rising Star

I personally feel the microloan played a significant role in the growth and development of the business and has enabled Mind Trix Media to reach new heights. Thank you to the board and everyone at Acacia Global for considering us as a beneficiary of the award. It has been the start to many great things.
