One man made R1 million a month selling bread to South African prisons without owning a bakery

• The individual in question made R1 million per month by supplying overpriced bread to South African prisons without owning a bakery.
• The individual subcontracted their own supply and bought bread from wholesalers for R15 per loaf, then sold it to the prisons for R24.50, resulting in a significant profit margin.
• The Department of Correctional Services has since saved R77 million by producing its own bread, with Minister Pieter Groenewald aiming to make South African prisons 100% self-sufficient.
