Find suppliers
Find suppliers and their numbers, then have them phoned
Find suppliers on Speaks by saying what you need and where you are. It looks through South African business records and Google Maps, shows you who it found and where each number came from, and phones the ones you pick.
Coming soon. This is what Speaks is being built to do, and not all of it works yet.
| Supplier | Town | Number | From |

Say what you need
Building materials in Sandton, or a geyser element in Pretoria East. You get real businesses with their numbers, ratings and towns, and you take off anyone you don’t want.
Every number says where it came from
A website can be out of date, so you see the source of each number and decide. If you already know who you want, paste your own list.
Know the name, not the number?
Give it a business’s name or web page and it finds the numbers on record, for you to choose from.
Your suppliers stay yours
You see the suppliers on your own job. We don’t sell lists, and you can’t download anyone else’s.
Questions
Which businesses can it find?
South African businesses with a phone number on public record. Sole traders’ personal details aren’t included.
Can I use my own suppliers?
Yes. Paste your list, or mix it with what Speaks finds.
Will suppliers mind being called?
It’s a normal enquiry to a business’s own line, about something you want to buy. It says who it’s calling for, never sells anything, and stops if they ask.
Be first on the line.
Speaks is coming soon. Tell us what you want it to do first, and we’ll call you when your turn comes.
