Melo News | 25 February 2025
Cairo, Egypt – Zambia has sent a clear and compelling message to Egypt: now is the time to invest! Addressing the Egypt-Zambia Business Forum, President Hakainde Hichilema extended an invitation to Egyptian investors, highlighting Zambia’s favourable investment climate, strategic geographic position, and vast economic potential.
🌍 Why Zambia? A Land of Opportunity Awaits
Zambia is making significant strides in positioning itself as a leading investment destination in Africa, thanks to several key advantages:
✅ Strategic Location in Southern Africa – Zambia’s position provides direct access to regional markets, making it a perfect gateway for businesses looking to expand across the continent.
✅ Young, Skilled & Energetic Workforce – With a growing population of motivated and skilled youth, investors have access to a talented labour force ready to drive industry and innovation.
✅ Rich Natural Resources & Fresh Water Reserves – Zambia is home to some of the largest freshwater bodies in the region, making it ideal for agriculture, food production, and industrialisation.
✅ Pro-Business Government Policies – The government is actively working to eliminate bureaucratic barriers to make investment seamless and efficient.
🚀 Fast-Tracking Investment: Less Red Tape, More Action!
President Hichilema didn’t just make promises—he took action! He directed government agencies in both countries to fast-track the implementation of existing Memorandums of Understanding (MoUs). This move is designed to eliminate bureaucratic hurdles and ensure Zambians, particularly young people, benefit from job creation and business opportunities.
“We are not just inviting investors; we are creating an environment where your businesses will flourish. Zambia is ready for investment, and we are making sure that the process is transparent, efficient, and mutually beneficial.” – President Hakainde Hichilema
