A Dream Fulfilled:
Value-able Consulting was born in 2018 when Nedoboni Ndivhuwo and his partner, Mulondi Nthulana, identified a crucial gap in the market. They observed that smaller clients were not receiving the same benefits as larger clients, often falling through the cracks. Determined to rectify this disparity, they pursued their dream of making these smaller clients their top priority. Their business plan centred around providing excellent service, quicker turnaround times, and ensuring compliance while educating clients on accounting matters. Their vision was clear: to become the best Accounting, Auditing, Tax, and Compliance firm in South Africa.
Recognising the potential and dedication of Ndivhuwo and Nthulana, Black Umbrellas became a vital catalyst in their journey. In May 2019, Value-able Consulting found a nurturing environment through the hard work that has been put. With the growth and vision of the company, Value-able Consulting eventually transitioned to its own offices in Kildrummy Office Park, Paulshof, Sandton, in 2021. Nedoboni and Mulondi has provided a supportive ecosystem that allowed Value-able Consulting to thrive, offering both workspace invaluable business knowledge and resources.

By promoting skills transfer and on-the-job training, Value-able Consulting cultivates a culture of growth and development within its walls.
