WHY INVEST
IN
NAMIBIA?

Namibia is ranked amongst the world's most politically stable countries, with guaranteed safety, security and rule of law.  

Namibia is ambitiously establishing herself as a gateway for industrialisation in Southern Africa, leveraging the strategic location complemented by the world-class port at Walvis Bay, abundant natural resources, and forward-looking policies. With the best road network in Africa, Namibia serves as a logistics hub for road, rail, and sea transportation, connecting neighbouring countries and the Southern African Development Community to the global marketplace.

Kelp Blue

The role that the NIPDB has played as a partner to our business has been monumental. Not only has it provided vital signposts to help us navigate the complex landscape associated with establishing an innovative industry that is new to Namibia but it has also helped by ensuring that the necessary velocity and momentum is maintained.

 

This partnership led to the first runner-up award in the 'Best FDI Project' category of the Investment Awards which was hosted at the Annual Investment Meeting (AIM) 2023 in Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates. The award was presented to NIPDB as the investment promotion agency for Namibia, specifically for the Kelp Blue investment project.
