Although small in comparison to the vast metropoles
in the other South African provinces, Polokwane boasts all the
amenities on offer elsewhere in the country, and many more. And it
brags of more to come! The population, fascinating in its diversity
gets about its business, acutely aware that the city has become the
centre for regional economic development in the north. Once talked
about, each day one can see the city change as new opportunities
unfold. Visitors, particularly foreigners, come to take advantage of
the fine weather, magnificent surroundings, investment
opportunities, beautiful golf courses. |

With four large shopping centres and a new
multimillion rand regional shopping mall being planned there is no
shortage of purchasing opportunities in Polokwane. South Africa is
known for its outstanding table and superb fare, and Polokwane is no
exception. With cattle ranching forming a large part of the
agricultural sector around Polokwane, the finest steaks are always
on offer in the many eateries in and around the city. With its
wealth of agricultural resources, tourist attractions and the
mineral rich soils around the city, Polokwane with its sophisticated
infrastructure and proximity to consumer markets, both within its
borders and beyond, is a treasure chest of opportunities. Surrounded
by vast platinum, gold and diamond developments, to name just a few,
opportunities for the manufacture of jewellery are very real and
vast timber plantations would open doors for those ready to invest
in the manufacture of wooden furniture. Polokwane is naturally the
centre and home to Limpopo’s government offices, the financial
sector and regional retail and trading. It’s a destination with a
rich cultural legacy where 6 languages, Sepedi, Tshivenda,
TshiTsonga, Isindebele, English and Afrikaans are spoken. |
