A REGIONAL OVERVIEW OF
A REGIONAL OVERVIEW OF LIMPOPO The Limpopo Development Plan outlines concrete steps to industrialisation, infrastructure development, promotion of SMMEs and expanding the knowledge economy. By John Young Limpopo’s location gives it a strategic importance that enhances the province’s strengths in mining and agriculture. Neighbouring countries Botswana, Zimbabwe and Mozambique all provide economic opportunities and the province’s proximity to the powerhouse of Gauteng ensures a ready market for goods and services. Existing manufacturing in the province is centred on mining areas (smelters and refineries), agricultural estates (juices and concentrates) and Polokwane (food and beverages). Agri-processing is strong, with Pioneer Foods, McCain, Granor Passi, Kanhym, Westfalia and Enterprise Foods prominent, but this sector still has potential to grow.
