Thank you Confused about De BEERS:

The De Beers Group is a Johannesburg-based diamond mining and trading corporation. They have historically held a near-total monopoly in the diamond trade, although recently other producers have developed new mines, such as in Russia and Canada, challenging their dominance. In 1994 De Beers was charged by the United States Justice Department with antitrust violations for conspiring to fix prices for industrial diamonds. On 14 July 2004 De Beers pleaded guilty to the charges and paid a $10 million fine. The plea has enabled De Beers to trade directly in the United States diamond market after years of acting through intermediaries. Using its monopoly, De Beers has created an artificial scarcity of diamonds, thus keeping prices high. The modern tradition of diamonds as a part of engagement in many cultures has been largely created by De Beers through an amazingly effective advertising campaign started in 1938. The "A Diamond is Forever" campaign not only convinced the public that the only suitable gift for engagement is a diamond, but also served to limit the market in used diamonds. [1]
I
n 2001, De Beers launched a joint venture with French luxury goods company LVMH in order to establish De Beers as a retail brand. The joint venture, called De Beers LV, has a license from De Beers SA to use the De Beers brand name in a retail environment. Before the venture was allowed to begin, the European Union competition commission launched an investigation into whether the venture would give De Beers too great a control over the rough diamond market. An initial one-month probe determined that a longer investigation was necessary. The commission eventually allowed the joint venture to go ahead in July 2001.

The venture has since opened ten retail stores across the globe.


Good bye , I will not even go into the SA company producing local Tequilla for export.

Answer 2

De Beers is South African! Might now trade from London, but still considered a SA company.

All the major mining companies: AnglogoldAshanti, Gold Fields, Harmony, etc have mines all over the world.

Pep Stores, Woolworths have shops in other countries, such as Ghana. Namibia and Botswana have most South African retail companies doing business there: CNA, various furniture stores, Pick & Pay, etc.

Steeres, Nandos, etc are all over Africa, eg. Ghana, Tanzania.

South Africa has essentially started investing all over Africa so we see SA companies all over sub-saharan Africa.

The mining companies work more internationally: the USA, Australia, Finland, Peru, etc, plus various countries within Africa.
