When traditional finance falls short, viable businesses get left behind. Mutualism was founded in 2019 to change that.
We started by supporting business owners in underserved areas where access to finance was often hardest to find. Today, we fund a broader network of South African SMEs, from informal traders to established companies ready to scale.
Our goal remains the same: to make business funding in South Africa more accessible, more flexible, and more supportive. We offer financial services tailored to the unique needs of local businesses. Helping South African SMEs move forward and thrive.
Beyond finance, our work is driving job creation and supporting long-term stability in communities across the country. We imagine a South Africa where every viable business, no matter where it starts, has a fair shot at success.
