Cultivating Modecia's drive for success

I am Modecia Phasha, proud owner of Magaile Enterprise, established in 2018. My company specialises in construction, with expertise in trench construction and dust suppression services.

I saw an opportunity from Glencore in our local community newspaper and applied, securing a 6-month contract with Glencore’s Lion Smelter for Tailing Storage Facilities trench construction.

Stepping into the male-dominated mining industry was not easy, but Glencore’s support has been a game-changer. Through their GIBS programme, I gained
invaluable skills in project management and finance. That initiative plus their assistance in procuring a water truck transformed my business, propelling it to new heights.

Today, with 18 employees by my side, I see Magaile Enterprise soaring internationally in the next five years.

To aspiring entrepreneurs, especially women, I say: prepare your mind and
seize every opportunity.
