A day of wellness in Rehoboth. On 19 September, the WBCG Wellness Services team joined hands with MPower Community Trust to bring health and wellness screening closer to the Rehoboth community. From checking blood pressure and other key health indicators to sharing information and answering questions, the day was about creating a simple opportunity for people to pause, check in on their health and learn more about taking care of themselves. For us, community wellness is about meeting people where they are and making preventative healthcare more accessible. A big thank you to MPower Community Trust and everyone who came through and made the day meaningful. Your health deserves a check-in. #WBCG #WellnessOnTheMove #CommunityWellness #Rehoboth #HealthScreening #HealthyCommunities #Prevention

On 17 September | The Walvis Bay Corridor Group (WBCG) participated in the Financial Security Framework Awareness Session held in Walvis Bay, in conjunction with the Namibia Revenue Agency (NamRA) and the Namibian Ports Authority (Namport), which focused on strengthening customs compliance, revenue protection, and trade facilitation. The engagement was to create awareness ahead of NamRA’s piloting of the Customs Financial Security Framework at Walvis Bay which is set to run from 1 December 2026 to 28 February 2028. The session provided valuable insights into the proposed financial security mechanism, its application, and how it will support a more transparent, risk-based customs process. As WBCG we remain committed to supporting initiatives that promote efficient and secure trade across Namibia’s corridors. #WBCG #Namport #NamRA #StakeholderEngagement #FinancialSecurityFrameworkPilot #WalvisBay @NamRA_org_na @NamibianPorts

16-17 September 2026 | The Walvis Bay Corridor Group (WBCG) participated in the Africa Mining Summit 2026, held in Gaborone, Botswana, with Mr. Irvaan Maharaj, Business Development Manager: South Africa, representing WBCG. The Summit provided a strategic platform to engage directly with mining houses, investors, commodity companies, transport and logistics providers, suppliers and other key industry stakeholders, with a focus on identifying opportunities to grow cargo volumes through Namibia’s ports and corridors. Through targeted engagements and structured Business-to-Business (B2Bs) meetings, WBCG explored potential mine-to-port and mine-to-market logistics opportunities across commodities including copper, coal, manganese, iron ore and other minerals. Discussions focused on how emerging and existing mining projects and commodity flows could be connected to Walvis Bay and Lüderitz through integrated road, rail, port, shipping and freight-forwarding solutions. The engagements also created opportunities to develop potential cargo pipelines, strengthen business relationships and identify strategic partners across the mining and logistics value chain. With the Trans-Kalahari Corridor providing a direct route linking Walvis Bay–Windhoek–Gaborone–Johannesburg/Pretoria, and Zimbabwe, WBCG continues to position Namibia as an Atlantic gateway to international markets, offering mining and commodity businesses an alternative route with potential advantages in time efficiency, cost competitiveness, reliability and market access. The Africa Mining Summit further strengthened opportunities to deepen Botswana-Namibia trade relations and advance the development of sustainable cargo flows along the Walvis Bay Corridors. #WBCG #AfricaMiningSummit2026 #MiningBotswanaNamibia #WalvisBay #TransKalahariCorridor #WalvisBayCorridors #PortofWalvisBayMineToMarket #PortofWalvisBayMineToPort #LogisticsTradeFacilitation #CargoDevelopmentSupplyChain
