About Coregrowth Impact

Coregrowth Impact was founded from a simple but powerful observation. While SMEs form the backbone of the South African economy, access to flexible, growth-aligned funding remains limited. At the same time, many individuals are seeking opportunities to invest beyond traditional markets, but lack access to direct, well-structured private business opportunities.

Our model connects investors with high-potential SMEs through transparent, revenue-based funding structures. This enables businesses to access capital that aligns with their cash flow realities and investors to gain exposure to entrepreneurial income streams without operational involvement.


Our vision is to create a new category of investment in South Africa — one that sits between traditional lending and equity ownership, and unlocks the true potential of small businesses.

Driving Positive Economic Impact

Our overall goal is to have a positive impact on the economic landscape of South Africa. Our focus is on small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), the cornerstone of the country’s labour force and economic activity making up between 50-60% of the labour force and contributing over 30% to our GDP.

We aim to address the listed issues by partnering with you.

What We Do

We facilitate structured funding solutions between investors and small to medium-sized businesses, using flexible, performance-linked models that better align with the realities of operating a business. Rather than relying solely on traditional debt or equity structures, we design and implement funding arrangements where returns are linked to the underlying performance of the business — typically through revenue- or profit-sharing mechanisms.

We work closely with SMEs to understand their operational model, growth potential, and capital requirements, and then structure funding solutions that are both sustainable for the business and attractive to investors. This includes identifying appropriate funding amounts, defining return structures, and ensuring that agreements are transparent and aligned across all parties.

On the investor side, we provide access to curated private business opportunities that would otherwise be difficult to source or manage independently. Investors are able to participate in the growth of real businesses, earning returns linked to performance, without the need for direct operational involvement.

By acting as an intermediary and structuring partner, we bridge the gap between capital and opportunity — enabling businesses to access funding that adapts to their cash flow cycles, while offering investors exposure to entrepreneurial income streams in a more structured and accessible way.

In addition, our experience in research, analysis and advisory ensures accuracy, clarity and care for our clients.

You Invest

Investors participate in curated opportunities, gaining exposure to private businesses without the need for direct management.

Earn returns from real performance

Investors receive income linked to revenue or profit performance, offering an alternative to traditional market-based returns.

A smarter alternative to traditional investments

We offer a differentiated investment approach by providing access to private market opportunities that are typically difficult to source and manage independently. Unlike traditional asset classes such as listed equities or fixed-income instruments, returns are not solely driven by market sentiment or interest rate cycles, but by the underlying performance of real businesses. This creates an opportunity for investors to earn performance-linked income while diversifying beyond conventional portfolios. By structuring investments around revenue or profit participation, the model aligns investor returns directly with business success, offering both transparency and a more tangible connection to capital deployment. At the same time, this approach supports the growth of SMEs, creating a dual benefit of financial return and economic impact.

We provide investors with access to income-generating SME opportunities that sit outside traditional markets, while enabling businesses to grow through aligned funding structures.
