South Africa BPO Services

The Next Great Outsourcing Destination

South Africa may well have the best English-speaking CX talent pool in the world from a cost-performance perspective.

An Ideal Location

Sharing a time zone with many European countries, South Africa is ideally situated to provide synchronous support to Europe and only slightly offset shifts for the U.S.

Unmatched Language Skills

Recently dubbed the ‘sexiest’ of all English accents, South African English is pleasing and clear and is spoken natively by nearly 5 million people. Other European languages such as Dutch, German and Italian are also common.

Primed for Growth

With world-class airports, road networks and reliable high-speed internet South Africa possesses the infrastructure necessary to support long-term growth. The government is also extremely supportive of the BPO industry, recognizing that its jobs can form the foundation of a growing middle class.

Huge Cost Savings

A weakened currency and high unemployment have suppressed labor costs in South Africa, making it highly competitive among global outsourcing centers. While many other outsourcing destinations are seeing rapidly tightening labor markets and ever-increasing costs, the outlook for South Africa is very stable.
