What We Do
The Kandua Company helps small service businesses grow. We connect them to new customers and we take the sweat out of business management with easy to use tech tools. Kandua.com is South Africa’s #1 online marketplace for home services. Every month, over 40 000 vetted home service pros have access to around R50 million worth of work opportunities from individual customers, and access to business customers through Kandua’s partnerships with leaders in insurance and retail. The Kandua for Pros app puts a head office in the palm of every pro’s hand: send professional quotes and invoices, accept card and online payments, keep track of customer communication, and get visibility of business performance, all from a mobile phone, and all safely stored in the cloud. Our mission is to use tech to shorten the distance between having a skill and making a living from it: helping the people who help us every day.
Who We Are
We choose to be of service
We are here to be useful to our Pros, to their customers, and to each other. To be useful is to choose to solve the real problems. To choose to be of service to our mission.
We disagree and commit
If you have a different opinion, it is your right and your responsibility to share it. We embrace the tension. We hear each other out. And, once a decision is made, we let go of our opinions and move forward as one.
We own it
Think like an owner. Act like an owner. Ownership means taking responsibility for action and accountability for outcomes - glory and defeat.
We’re professional AF
Here you are free to be your most brilliant self. Because, professionalism isn’t about how you dress or what slang you use. It’s about rigour. Keeping promises. Being uncompromising about being your best
We don’t have sh*tcaves
We’re open about what is really happening so we can move forward, fast. We give and seek out clear, consistent, candid feedback
