ABOUT US
Octopi Renewed is a subsidiary of the Octopi Group, which started trading in the Office Automation industry in 1985. The Group has branches located throughout South Africa and a sizeable network of dealers across Southern Africa. Within the Group, we have extensive in-house and external sales, technical and support resources that enable us to assist customers with both new and renewed printing and other business technology solutions.
Octopi Renewed focuses on the sourcing, refurbishing and redeployment of renewed printing and scanning technologies. We do this in conjunction with our Accredited technical training programme and together with input and participation from our partners, including those in appropriate Government departments, our clients, and the Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEM)
Given the vast fleet of printing and scanning devices already deployed in South Africa, all of which were originally imported, we have the amazing opportunity to:
- Cost Efficiency: Access high-quality, local supply chains that significantly reduce procurement costs.
- ESG & Social Impact: Support youth skills development and e-waste reduction with every device.
- Maximum Compliance: Leverage our Level 1 B-BBEE status for measurable procurement and transformation benefits.
TAILORED B2B SOLUTIONS
- For Corporate & Government: End-to-end "as-a-Service" rentals, including onsite support and managed consumables.
- For Channel Partners: Reliable stock, competitive pricing, and seamless distribution across Southern Africa.
The Circular Advantage is that Octopi Renewed not only sells hardware, but also optimizes resources to build a more sustainable, self-reliant South African economy.
Achieving Level 1 B-BBEE Contributor status reflects our commitment to transformation but also creates measurable benefits for our valued customers.
What this means for you:
135% Procurement Recognition for each Rand spent you receive the recognition of R1.35 in spend towards your Preferential Procurement scorecard.
- Additional Recognition
