Business partners starting or formalising a venture together

Partnership Agreement

For two or more people going into business together — capital, profit share, decisions and what happens when someone leaves.

Quick answer

A partnership agreement is a written agreement used by business partners starting or formalising a venture together in South Africa. This template covers the partnership & what it trades, capital contributions, profit & loss shares, joint management & banking and more, drafted with POPIA, the CPA and the ECT Act in mind.

The problem it solves: Partners who agreed everything verbally, then fight over money, decisions and exits.

Good to know

Do we need this if we're friends?+

That's exactly when you need it. A written partnership agreement prevents the arguments that end friendships.

What if there are more than 2 partners?+

Yes — the agreement works for three or more; set out each partner's share in the fields.

Is this legal advice?+

No. It's a professionally structured starting point. For high-value or unusual deals, have an attorney review your completed document.
