Choppies Namibia has introduced a graduate recruitment initiative designed to develop skilled retail professionals while partnering with two educational institutions in the country. The program will accept 10 students annually from both the International University of Management and Triumphant College, according to Molatedi Kgotla, the group human resources manager for Choppies in Botswana.
The supermarket chain views this effort as a strategic investment in building future leadership for its operations while addressing unemployment among young Namibians. Marketing and communications manager Yambeko Angala noted the initiative supports expansion plans to increase store locations from 23 to 27 by Vision 2030.
Country manager Deon Bauermeister emphasized the company's commitment to creating sustainable employment opportunities that empower local talent and contribute to workforce development across Namibia's retail sector.
