A 65% stake in Knowledge Factory was acquired by Kagiso Media in November 2010. Its business model is largely driven by annuity revenues from its client base which comprises a number of blue-chip South African corporates. Knowledge Factory is an information business which specialises in the use of geospatial and property deeds data to gain in-depth understanding of consumer behaviour.

Revenue for the year met the acquisition plan expectations and the current sales pipeline provides encouragement that it will deliver on its budgets in 2012.
