Mozambique’s industrial growth is creating new opportunities for local businesses, and women entrepreneurs are determined to be part of that journey.
On 17 June, members of the Associação da Inclusão Social e Económica da Mulher (AISEM) visited Beluluane Industrial Park to gain a deeper understanding of how women-led businesses can participate in the dynamic ecosystems. Representing sectors ranging from technology and transport to consulting, beauty, logistics, and social development, the delegation explored opportunities for investment, business growth, and participation in industrial value chains.
As part of the visit, the delegation toured Raxio Data Centre Mozambique and Beleza, gaining firsthand insight into the diverse industries operating within the park. The visits provided an opportunity to learn more about business operations, investment requirements, and the potential opportunities available for local enterprises to engage with companies already established in the industrial ecosystem.
“We believe that the economic empowerment of women has a significant impact on communities. Through visits such as this one, we seek to connect women entrepreneurs with opportunities that can help them grow their businesses, build partnerships, and contribute to Mozambique’s development,” states AISEM President, Alima Hussein Sauji.
Beyond the site visits, AISEM members explored what it takes for local businesses to connect with large-scale industry. Particular attention was given to supplier opportunities for small and medium-sized enterprises, future developments within the MozParks ecosystem, and the role women entrepreneurs can play in supporting and benefiting from Mozambique’s industrial growth.
