Molecules Catalyst™ for corporates
Turn your ESD budget into cleaner sites and stronger suppliers.
Fund the development of cleaning SMMEs who then serve your own sites: enterprise development and supplier development in one programme, with the paperwork done.
How it works
Develop the SMMEs that clean your sites
- 1
You fund a cohort
Choose the number of cleaning or car-care SMMEs to develop, in the provinces where you have sites.
- 2
We build the businesses
Company and PAYE/UIF registration, Molecules Academy training, Certified Clean onboarding, starter equipment and stock, and SmartStock for quotes, jobs and invoices.
- 3
They serve your sites
Developed partners clean your sites through Molecules under one contract, one quality standard and one invoice.
- 4
You get the evidence
Quarterly reports per SMME: jobs, people employed, training completed and compliance documents, ready for your verification agency.

What your funding pays for
Built, not just sponsored
- Company, tax, PAYE, UIF and COIDA registration for each SMME, so everyone on your sites is properly employed.
- Molecules Academy training: chemical safety, Certified Clean method and running a cleaning business; support to register with the Services SETA.
- Starter equipment, uniforms and professional-grade stock, with SmartDose™ portion packs for a fixed cost per bucket.
- SmartStock for quotes, jobs and invoices, and the Certified Clean quality checks on your sites.
- Quarterly reporting per SMME: jobs, people employed, training completed and compliance documents.

B-BBEE recognition: the honest version
Contributions may be recognised under the Enterprise and Supplier Development element of the B-BBEE Codes of Good Practice. Recognition depends on the beneficiaries' profile and your verification agency's assessment: we do not promise points.
Every cohort is costed per SMME in a written proposal before you commit, with the beneficiary documents your verification agency needs.
