What happened

Some supportReported by 1 outlet

A parliamentary standing committee reported on infrastructure and sanitation challenges faced by small and medium enterprises (SMEs) and informal traders in Namibia. The committee visited towns including Swakopmund, Okahandja, Windhoek, and Keetmanshoop. The report found that all four towns have significant water, sanitation, and ablution challenges at informal trading sites, and many traders lack permanent storage.

Why it matters

Some supportBrind's analysis of the reports

The lack of adequate facilities and permanent infrastructure forces traders to pack and unpack their goods daily, which increases the risk of stock damage and losses. These systemic infrastructure failures in urban areas could impact the operational capacity and viability of the informal economy in Namibia.
