Loxworth Capital Netherlands has secured a €15 million (approx. N$300 million) facility from Invest International to accelerate the expansion of its subsidiary, Namibia Berries — one of Southern Africa’s leading hydroponic blueberry operations.
The investment will fund the next 100-hectare growth phase in Namibia’s Kavango East region, effectively doubling production capacity to 200 hectares. It forms part of Loxworth’s long-term vision to develop a global footprint of 1,000 hectares of climate-smart blueberry farming across Southern Africa — a €100 million investment programme shaping the next generation of sustainable agribusiness.
Three additional test sites are currently under development across the region as part of the group’s evaluation and expansion strategy.
“This is more than an investment in blueberries, it’s an investment in people, innovation, and the future of African agriculture.” — Michael Rodenburg, Founder and CEO, Loxworth Capital and Namibia Berries
This milestone has been made possible through the continued collaboration of Herbert Widmann GmbH and Gemüsering Stuttgart GmbH — partners whose shared commitment underpins Loxworth’s regional growth and Namibia Berries’ success.
As Loxworth advances into this next phase, the focus remains on technical excellence, innovation, and sustainable growth — building a resilient future for African agriculture.
