Residents of Katima Mulilo will now be exposed to a larger product portfolio of Namibia Dairies. The company is a subsidiary of the Ohlthaver & List (O&L) Group - after it recently opened its fifth depot, in the town.

According to the head of marketing at Namibia Dairies, Leonie Prinsloo, the main objective of the depot at Katima Mulilo is to have the Namibia Dairies portfolio available to all Namibians in all areas of the country.

“This depot will also provide a 'call and collect' service to the Katima customer base to ensure stock availability, promote cross-border trade and expand the company's overall business, as well as utilise synergies with their sister company Namibia Breweries Limited (NBL) at the Katima facility.”

Namibia Dairies has depots in Windhoek, Swakopmund, Otjiwarongo, Oshakati and now in Katima. It also has agents in Rundu and Katima Mulilo, as well as factory shops in Windhoek, Swakopmund and Ondangwa. The Katima depot employs 11 permanent staff.

The O&L Group's manager for corporate communications Roux-che Locke emphasised the group's commitment to making all its proudly Namibian products and services available to each and every Namibian.

“Through O&L's support of government's growth-at-home agenda, we are committed to promoting and creating awareness on locally produced products and services. O&L is a proudly Namibian company striving to provide the local market with proudly Namibian products and services at all times.”

The Katima depot is situated on the B1 Road.
