Dalton Ltd – is the third largest South African manufacturer of
high-quality JoJo tanks with its head offices situated in Midrand.
The company owns four branches: one in Naturena, the second
in Ennerdale, the third in Pachuca and the fourth in Roodepoort.
Although the market for JoJo tanks has been expanding
extremely well, Dalton could not share in this growth due to the
technical challenges experienced with the current machine. To
increase production and sales, the company is considering
embarking on an extensive marketing campaign, offering better
credit terms and replacing the current injection moulding
machine with a more technically advanced model which will
cost the company R3 000 000. In funding the replacement
project, a five-year loan will be raised from standard bank at a
floating interest rate of 11.75% per annum. The replacement
requires that the company increases its working capital by R240
000. In financing the working capital, the company will secure a
total revolving credit loan with a limit of R240 000 from Capitec
bank, at a floating interest of 12.2% per annum. DALTON Ltd
