WINDHOEK
Albatrunca Investment Holdings, a Namibian company that is primarily involved in imports and exports from around the globe, is soon to be officially launched.
Albatrunca Investment Holdings, with its head office in Windhoek, consists of several divisions and specialises in electronic equipment, media, construction, property and security.
The solid launch date is yet to be announced.
Since its inception last year the company has taken the southern African market by storm. Albatrunca is a supplier of Cell One, MTC and Edcon, a leading clothing, footwear and textiles (CFT) retailing group in southern Africa trading through a range of retail formats such as Edgars, Jet and Red Square, amongst others.
It has also made big inroads into the mobile phone market.
Through its MO Cell division, the company also offers young people the opportunity to buy their own franchises.
“Our mission is to become one of the premier business houses in the country contributing to the overall growth and development of its economy,” said the founder and sole owner of Albatrunca Investment Holdings, Moses Kairimuti.
“We have an eagle eye’s view approach to business opportunities and therefore are not limited to any particular sector,” he said.
The company also runs a non-profit company called One Voice Network, a Christian interdenominational youth network.
“With this network we aim to unite the youth for the purpose of reaching out to others with a message of hope for daily challenges,” said Kairimuti who is also a “born-again Christian”.
“To have faith in God, honesty, to treat all human beings with dignity and respect, are amongst the corporate values of our company.
“We strive to achieve the goal of vision 2030, and thus is religiously committed to the principles of black economic empowerment, in order to transform the way the country’s economy is governed and to address and redress the current economic imbalances that are prevailing in our economy at present.”
The company also recently donated 10 computers worth N$40 000 to Swapo, N$100 000 towards the construction of the party’s headquarters and N$10 000 towards the fund to defend former President Sam Nujoma and three others in a case lodged with the International Criminal Court (ICC) by the National Society for Human Rights.
