LUBOMBO – The Eswatini Investment Promotion Authority (EIPA) has commenced a series of follow-up visits to investors who made commitments during the Eswatini Investment Conference held in May this year.
The visits, which began at Magomba Mining and continued to Ubombo Sugar, are part of EIPA’s efforts to assess the progress of pledged investment projects and determine what obstacles investors might be facing.
According to EIPA, the engagements are meant to help identify where support can be extended—either through facilitation or direct intervention—while also informing possible recommendations to government for adjustments in policies or priorities to enable smoother project implementation.
One of the key stops was at Mtfombeni Investment (Pty) Ltd, a wholly Eswatini-owned textile manufacturing company located in the Lubombo region. The firm, which produces personal protective clothing for local manufacturers, is working to expand its footprint both domestically and in international markets.
EIPA officials undertook a factory tour and pledged to assist the company in its efforts to grow its local customer base while setting up for export opportunities abroad.
