Gauteng is South Africa’s smallest province by area and its most populous, and it produces the largest share of the country’s economic output. Its capital is Johannesburg, Pretoria is the country’s administrative capital, and it contains three metros: Johannesburg, Tshwane and Ekurhuleni, plus the Sedibeng and West Rand districts.
bLMs is a Gauteng business: our office is in Germiston, Ekurhuleni.
