Last year we started the tradition of sharing ways you can support small businesses over the festive season.<\/a> This year, we\u2019ve decided to do it again, by highlighting some of the country\u2019s dynamic entrepreneurs to give you some shopping ideas for the summer season.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Some of the businesses mentioned below are xneelo customers, while others we think are just plain awesome. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Try something new<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

We\u2019ve all worked hard this year, and while many of us only wish we could spend the holidays on a grand adventure, the good news is that you can have a smaller adventure right on your own doorstep.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you\u2019re in or around Cape Town, or visiting over summer, learn to surf with Surf Life<\/a>, a travelling surf school that will teach anyone to surf, no matter your level of experience. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you prefer to stay on land, pop into your nearest Bothners<\/a> to learn a new musical instrument. Their website is a great resource not only for shopping, but for connecting with the local music community, finding a teacher through their classifieds or reading up on your new hobby on their blog.

Treat your cats to a holiday<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

We can\u2019t get enough of this amazing business. The Tortoise Shell <\/a>is a cat boutique hotel where your pet will get the five-star treatment many of us merely dream about. And while your cats are being pampered on their holiday, you can spend yours spying on them through the live video feed available in all cottages. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Nurture your Movember investment<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Mens\u2019 grooming products are a growing market in South Africa, and we\u2019re all for supporting the entrepreneurs and SMEs making a name for themselves in this sphere, especially online. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Beard Boys<\/a> is an online store specialising in beard care products, but also has an impressive stock of shaving, hair and lifestyle products as well as apparel. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

For owner Saood Mota, festive season orders are significant for the business, and a time when his online store receives an influx of visitors. To capitalise on this traffic, he offers discounts and overnight delivery for some areas. Visitors are also likely to receive coupons they can redeem in quieter months.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe usually start our festive online sale from the 15th November till the 31st of December,\u201d he says.

Read something different <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Reader\u2019s Den<\/a> isn\u2019t your average book store \u2013 it’s a brave new world of comic books, graphic novels, figurines, collectables and games. What started as a flea market stall in the nineties has grown significantly over the years. The business has two brick and mortar stores, an online store and acts as the official FanCon store (a huge fandom event which officially joined forces with Comic Con Africa<\/a> in 2023.) <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Despite its growth, the flagship store is still owned by brothers Nizar and Mahdi Abrahams. The big difference is that you\u2019re more likely to find a signed version of your favourite comic or artwork thanks to the years the brothers spent putting South Africa on the comic book map.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cAs a niche online store, we love the fact that even the person living in the most remote part of South Africa has access to our unique line of geek related products,\u201d explains Nizar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As is the case with many online businesses, the festive season really does have a significant impact. \u201cThe December period is our busiest time of the year and this spike usually comes from first time buyers looking for a special gift that can only be found at our online store,\u201d says Nizar.

Treat your palate<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Did you know that the South African restaurant industry has a new star ranking system?<\/a> Recently, the Eat Out Woolworths Restaurant Awards handed out one, two and three stars to some of the country\u2019s top restaurants. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

South Africa is bursting at the seams with great eateries, many of whom are chef-owned or run by families and entrepreneurs. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

We love the unique concept and vibe offered by Burger and Lobster<\/a> in Cape Town, Jack Black Brewery\u2019s<\/a> success story, and the Parisian flair of the Swan Caf\u00e9 Cr\u00eaperie.<\/a>
