About usBackground

Tendai Mtawarira, more commonly known by his rugby moniker “Beast” is a man of tremendous compassion and vision with a deep passion for philanthropy. After a very successful career in the rugby fraternity, Tendai is now ready for the business world, more specifically the private security industry. In his own words “I’ve always had a dream to protect and give back to those in need”.

Through his partnership with his long-time mentor and friend Wahl Bartmann of Fidelity Services Group, Tendai has ventured into the business world with the launch of Umlindi Security.

Umlindi Security has partnered with businessman, serial entrepreneur, and business development strategist, Siviwe Mpengesi. Siviwe started his career as a security officer, where he quickly recognised a gap and opportunity in the market and established a security and training business providing employment and skills development opportunities within the security sector. He has over 20 years of B2B marketing and networking experience and is ready to take on this new adventure with Tendai Mtawarira.
