Matabeleland South Province just wrapped up a big investment event in Beitbridge that ran Thursday through Friday. The area includes three urban councils plus seven rural district councils with plenty of chances for businesses across many industries. People can invest in mining, raising livestock, processing farm products, tourism, tech, financial services, energy projects, transportation, water systems, and building infrastructure. Many opportunities remain untapped for interested companies.
The event highlighted resources and opportunities throughout the region. Officials from government agencies worked with Ataraxia Communications Group to run everything. Business leaders, overseas investors, government workers, entrepreneurs, and farmers all attended the conference. Some attended in person; others watched online. Various government departments that help overseas Zimbabweans participate in building up the country also attended.
Dr. Evelyn Ndlovu sent a message read by Mrs. Latiso Dlamini-Maseko about showing off investment chances to local, foreign, and overseas Zimbabwean investors. She mentioned how important Special Economic Zones are in all seven districts. This event was built on a similar conference from last year. They wanted to display ready-to-take opportunities and create deeper connections between the province and investors.
The conference showed investment options across key economic areas. It discussed helpful policies for investors and strengthened public-private partnerships. It created a platform for business leaders to connect and share ideas. A Chinese company called Xintai Resources partnered with the government on a $3.6 billion industrial park in Beitbridge. The Palm River Project aims to improve mining and transform rural areas. The province sits on major trade routes, making it attractive for investment.
The area borders South Africa, leading to the Trans Limpopo plan for creating a strong economic corridor between Limpopo province and Matabeleland South. Local governments in both provinces have paired up to share successful methods for attracting investment. Mr. Richmond Ncube said they received good feedback from participants. They also took investors on a tour of the Palm River project to demonstrate the benefits of investing in Special Economic Zones.
