Walvis Bay - Housing Africa's most efficient port, offers local and foreign investors the opportunity to access the world’s markets. Opportunities abound for all, from the discerning business personality to the eco-connoisseur.
The port, now on a par with Cape Town and Durban in South Africa after a dredging exercise two years ago, is a SADC Regional Port. It means easier access to the 14-member market of more that 120 million people. With the SADC region becoming a closer knit community, investors are encouraged to consider the Walvis Bay option for their imports and exports to and from this vast and potentially rich part of Africa.
Besides the established fishing industry, the manufacturing output has been broadened with the establishment of Namibia’s first Export Processing Zone at Walvis Bay. Possibilities for growth exist in various value-added manufacturing and processing activities, as well as marketing, services for vessels, cold storage facilities, and transport. Major international companies continue to search for oil and gas off the Namibian coast.
