Oiling the wheels of trade

Petroleum industry veteran and Kwa Nokeng Oil CEO, Mahube Mpugwa, says the citizen-owned company’s ambition is to see Botswana become the region’s most preferred trade and logistics route. In a region where governments are building infrastructure such as roads and bridges to attract more of the trade traffic and investment their way, private investors such as Kwa Nokeng are playing a key role.

Several countries frequently make the claim of being the region’s logistics hub, a coveted status that can be leveraged for investment and the growth of downstream activities.
