Location
is one of the North West Province’s greatest natural advantages.
Mafikeng, the provincial capital, is a staging post for rail and
road traffic into the sub-continent.
The main Cape Town to Zimbabwe railway line passes through Mafikeng
via Botswana, with a feeder line to Angola. In terms of roads, the
vital east-west corridor linking Maputo on the Eastern African seaboard
and Walvis Bay on the Western African seaboard, runs through the
North West Province.
The Province’s positioning will be further augmented by the
planned Trans-Kalahari corridor through Botswana and Namibia, truly
justifying its claim as South Africa’s gateway into Africa.
Using this natural position, the perspective investor can attain
cost effective proximity to ideal trading environments throughout
the entire Southern African Development Community (SADC), which
offers a market of more than 150 million people.
Alternatively,
investors could take advantage of the dynamic business prospects
available in the North West Province through its vast mineral resources,
established manufacturing base, appealing tourist industry and agricultural
abundance.
A naturally beautiful area, the North West Province encapsulates
the full scale of human development in one Province – one
can retrace the footsteps of the earliest inhabitants on earth and
follow that development right through to sophisticated technology
based manufacturing.
The
North West Province accounts for roughly 10% of South Africa’s
land mass and from the very dawn of time, this area has been a magnet
for many different cultures. Today, its rich cultural diversity
is reflected in its population of 3,5 million people, 8,9% of South
Africa’s entire population.
There are many opportunities for increasing the income-producing
capacities of the local industries, enhancing product beneficiation
within the Province and participating more fully in the myriad of
international markets linked to the region’s natural resources.
