New Africa Capital, holding company for the Metropolitan businesses, has
facilitated the sale of a 20% stake in its wholly owned subsidiary, Metropolitan
Namibia, to a Namibian empowerment consortium known as Pinnacle, one of the
foremost empowerment groupings in that country.
Pinnacle has four major stakeholders, all of which are influential empowerment
players in their own right: Kumwe (50%), Pamue (35%), Nawegro (10%) and Ondjupa
(5%).
Peter Doyle, group chief executive of New Africa Capital, will be announcing the
partnership at a gala function in Windhoek this evening (Tuesday 19 November).
New Africa Capital has also given Pinnacle an undertaking that a further 10% of
the shares in Metropolitan Namibia will be made available to them once they have
obtained the financial backing needed to acquire this second tranche.
