Margaret started the competition in KZN, the Western Cape and Gauteng several years ago after winning her first award in 2012 – The Business Women’s Association of South Africa (BWASA) Entrepreneur of the Year Award.
She has gone on to win 28 top business awards since then.
“It was the most wonderful experience, both for me personally and for Hirsch’s, and I wanted to share this experience with other businesswomen in South Africa who perhaps do not consider themselves good enough or do not get acknowledged for all the effort they put into their business and into the community as a whole.
“Our finalists over the years have gone on to win several more awards and we are extremely proud of them,” said Margaret.
Entertainment for the evening will be well-known drag artist, Sasha LeStrange and the guest speaker is Melanie Hawken, the founder and CEO of Lionesses of Africa.
