It is a challenge to adapt in a new country. AfriForum Worldwide is here to help you. The best way to ensure that you are the best version of yourself in a new environment, is by building a network. Networks are not only for businesspeople; it is also a valuable way to build a support base for those days when you miss home and everyone is just too far away.   

AfriForum Worldwide’s World Guide is where South African businesses from all over the world come together to form a community. Owners of small businesses can make use of AfriForum Worldwide’s free service abroad and list their business on the interactive guide. This way they become part of this wonderful networking opportunity!

This week we focus on businesses in the United States of America you can support.
