A major challenge for a family business: how do you meaningfully empower people who don't feature on the family tree?

Perhaps by expanding the definition of family. To go beyond narrow bloodline definitions to include the people who every day contribute to your growth and success.

At Halls the family is several hundred strong, because it includes all our employees, regardless of their family name or cultural history.

We believe that for all South Africans to prosper, Broad-Based
Black Economic Empowerment (BBBEE) is a journey every business
should travel, and we are committed to bringing about authentic
transformation in the Halls environment.

Halls is rated as a Level 5 contributor under the Department of Trade and
Industry's (dti) BBBEE Code of Good Practice generic scorecard.

Through detailed action plans and ongoing measurement and alignment, we are
improving on this mission all the time. Slowly. Sometimes painfully. But always authentically.
