Lobito Corridor attracts interest from Investimento Global
The Partnership for Global Infrastructure and Investment (PGII) wants to bring potential private sector investors to Angola to strengthen the agribusiness value chain in the Lobito Corridor.
The interest was expressed, on Tuesday, in Luanda, by the special coordinator, Helaina Matza, during the audience granted to her by the Minister of Economy and Planning, Mário Caetano João.
The meeting also served to explore all the potential investment opportunities that exist in the non-oil sector.
Minister Mário Ceatano João presented the enormous potential that the country has for grain production, fertilizer manufacturing, the pharmaceutical industry (human and animal), urban waste management and financing for startups.
Mário Caetano João encouraged the American business delegation to look at the national market not as an end in itself, but to look at Angola as a gateway to and from the entire SADC region, especially the DRC and Zambia.
