Western Cape Business 2019 edition
A unique guide to business, investment and tourism in the Western Cape. The 2019 edition of Western Cape Business is the 12th issue of this highly successful publication that, since its launch in 2005, has established itself as the premier business and investment guide for the Western Cape Province. The Western Cape has varied investment and business opportunities. In addition to the regular articles providing insight into each of the key economic sectors of the province, there are special features in this journal on the big impact which the relatively new maritime sector is having, together with tourism and events and renewable energy.
