With over 3000 employees, at Sorbet we believe in community and in family. We believe in giving back and being part of empowering lives.
SEW is a Sorbet initiative that creates socio-economic upliftment by providing skills training and education for women and men, allowing them to enter the beauty and grooming industry and make their dream of joining Sorbet a reality.
SEW enrols unemployed women and men into world-class training affiliated to the Sorbet Group to gain the education needed to become a successful barber, hairstylist or beauty therapist.
We further support the process of sourcing well-suited candidates. Their competence, compassion, and soft skills are prerequisites for ensuring high-calibre professional graduates, enabling them to secure sustainable employment.
SEW’s graduate and job placement history are highly successful due to our partnership with a renowned recruitment organisation and our world-class training academies.
