FUTURE SECTORS
Chemicals & Basic Materials
Despite being the largest producer of solar sea-salt in Sub-Saharan Africa, Namibia lacks a significant chemical plant at the primary input source. This provides a unique opening for large-scale investment in a chemical plant by investors with global and regional value chains. With access to AfCFTA, EU, UK, USA, SADC, and SACU markets supported by Free Trade Agreements (FTAs), the potential for a successful venture is immense.
Global Business Services
Namibia's banking and financial systems have helped to establish a robust local business services sector. The country's most promising enterprises include call centres, training centres, and full business process outsourcing centres. Namibians are proficient in several languages, including English, which has helped to foster this industry. The country boasts a well educated and literate population, especially among its younger generation, who are renowned for their enthusiasm, diligence, and trainability.
