LISTEN TO OUR INTERVIEW WITH SALAAMEDIA ON THE AWARDS 

 

On 20 May 2020, iloveza.com announced their first annual After Fajr Grind Awards.

Most SMMEs have been negatively affected due to the lockdown, and the last thing on their mind right now is advertising or marketing. BUT this is a HUGE part of their business, and it helps to remind customers that they are still in business.

iloveza.com, South Africa's only Information Highway and Online Store - is an online platform that only publishes feel good stories about South Africa, and articles from the brands South Africans love, while offering Digital Media, Marketing, and Advertising Solutions for companies to ensure that they get the best exposure online (which is the best medium at this time), and connect with the right consumers. Through their website, online store, and social media, iloveza.com connects local brands to the world, and international brands to South Africa.

In 2017 Nabihah Plaatjes, Co-Founder, of iloveza.com was the recipient of the Owami Women and Brand South Africa's 'Play Your Part' Award for her contribution in developing female businesses in South Africa. 

In 2018 iloveza.com was the Winner of the 'Tech Savvy Boss Award' at the Roshgold Young Business Achiever Awards for their innovative platform.

iloveza.com is constantly growing their audience, and is currently receiving close to a million page views in a month on their website, and reaching over half a million people through their posts on social media.

Alexa ranks iloveza.com's website in the Top 200 000 in the World, and the Top 2000 in South Africa.

iloveza.com is also an accredited Shopify Partner, and assists brands to move their business to a secure e-commerce site, or join their platform (iloveza.com) which is ranked in the Top 1000 Shopify Online Stores in the World.

The After Fajr Grind Awards was created by iloveza.com to uplift SMMEs and assist them during these difficult times, to complement the constant assistance iloveza.com offers SMMEs, the new Facebook Frame created by iloveza.com which shows support for SMMEs, and their Facebook Group which focuses on increasing social media engagement for SMMEs.

After Fajr Grind is one of iloveza.com's unique hashtags that has been used since the establishment of the Business in early 2015.

After Fajr Grind simply means 'working hard after dawn'. More information about the phrase can be found HERE.

iloveza.com is always looking for new ways to assist businesses in South Africa. Now, they want to reward the best SMMEs in South Africa with prizes valued at more than half a million rand.
