Namibia's exhibition stand at the U.S.-Africa Business Summit in Luanda, Angola, is gaining attention for its unique showcase of locally produced goods that reflect the country's rich natural and cultural heritage.

Director of Information and Research for Public Diplomacy at the Ministry of International Relations and Trade, Bertha Amakali, highlighted the importance of the summit as a platform to promote Namibian products and connect with potential investors and partners.

Namibia's unique blend of cuisine and culture has, over the years, attracted growing interest on international platforms, helping to promote the country's identity and boost its appeal as a trade and tourism destination.

The U.S.-Africa Business Summit in Luanda, Angola, is yet another valuable platform for showcasing and marketing Namibian products to the world. 

This proved effective, drawing many visitors to the Namibian stall to explore the country's offerings.

Products on display included dates, biltong, beef, pasta, maize, dairy items, alcoholic beverages, and leather, and all reflected Namibia's diverse resources and export potential.

Amakali pointed out the importance of creating strong linkages between potential foreign investors and Namibian producers.

Entrepreneur David Sheehama of Kambwa Trading was part of the business delegation attending the U.S.-Africa Business Summit.

Sheehama, whose business has been operating for about 20 years, emphasised the importance of engaging with global companies to add value across various sectors, boost Namibia's economic growth, and create jobs.

The exhibition also featured African Blue Sodalite, a rare and highly sought-after Namibian variation of the Blue Sodalite mineral, which is found in only about six countries worldwide. What sets Namibia's version apart is its distinctive royal blue inclusions, giving it a unique aesthetic appeal.
