SA: Zimbabwean businessman Mudzinganyama’s company blacklisted from doing business with the state

YFM

Zimbabwean businessman, Lawrence Mudzinganyama, who faces charges following an alleged altercation with women at a Randburg restaurant, has been barred from doing business with the state.

Public Works Minister, Dean MacPherson, says Mudzinganyama’s company, Moriel Infrastructure Group, is among 60 non-performing contractors blacklisted by the Construction Industry Development Board (CIDB).

MacPherson says the company had been under investigation since 2025, when it was served with its first formal notice.

He says concerns were raised over whether Moriel Infrastructure Group had misrepresented its financial and technical capabilities to secure higher CIDB grading designations.

“The company held several high-level grades including 8CE, 8SB, 8SK, 7EP, 7ME and 7GB. It was important that the CIDB addresses these registration concerns through a proper regulatory process,” Macpherson said.

“The company was afforded an opportunity to respond to the allegations in accordance with our requirements of procedural fairness before the matter was considered by the board.”

The minister added that the subsequent decision to remove Moriel Group followed an investigation and consideration of the evidence through due process, rather than speculation.
