RURAL
CONNECT
“Find Services. Grow Communities.”
Rural Connect Network is a digital platform on a mission to bridge the gap between rural talent and the world.
“In many rural corners of South Africa, brilliance is everywhere — carpenters, teachers, creatives, and hustlers who build their communities from the ground up. Yet, these talents remain unseen because the digital world doesn’t easily reach them. Rural Connect Network was born out of the desire to bridge that gap.”
— Hector Baloyi, Co-Founder & CEO
Rural Connect Network enables small businesses, skilled individuals, freelancers, cooperatives, and informal traders in South Africa’s rural areas to establish a digital footprint and access new clients.
Vision: To simplify the discovery of local services and empower rural professionals with visibility, trust, and community engagement.
Mission: To foster economic growth and digital inclusion in South Africa's rural communities by creating the country’s most trusted and accessible online directory platform.
