Project Name/Description:
Themba Liyeza Logistics, Founder and CEO
The story of Nomathemba Selesho is driven by courage. Inspired by her father, who had a trucking business, she developed a passion for logistics, where she ended up starting her own logistics company, Themba Liyeza, in Enkangala, Bronkhotspruit, in 2018. She has employed over 18 people in her attempt to fight unemployment. Her company offers a range of services such as coal transportation, plant hire, shuttle services, and scholar transport. She is futuristic in her approach as she is planning to introduce mobility solutions that would include electric trucks, e-bikes, real-time tracking, and a smart logistics system. Having been born with hearing challenges did not deter her from pursuing her success with greater determination. There is no doubt that her strong academic background played a huge role in her success story. She holds a National Diploma in Accounting Science, an Advanced Diploma in Accounting Science, and a B.Tech in Internal Auditing. She is currently doing her Postgraduate Diploma in Business Administration with Wits Business School.
