Building the Industry since 1982
Since 1982, Namib Mills (Pty) Ltd has played a major role in the development of Namibia’s milling industry. Our contribution to the development of this important sector started with the company’s very first investment in a form of maize mill in Windhoek.

In 1986 we initiated an ambitious expansion programme with the construction of Namibia’s first wheat mill. This mill was subsequently upgraded in 1995 with one of the most advanced Buhler wheat mills in Southern Africa. October 2001 saw the opening of a state-of-the-art pasta factory in Windhoek. A year later, in October 2002, we invested into a Mahangu mill based in Otavi and to this day we provide Namibians with their favorite staple food. Our contribution to the country in terms of investment and employment creation is evident, through investments made and growth experienced over the years.

Today we have three milling facilities in Windhoek, Otavi and Katima Mulilo, with ten strategically placed depots that allow us to deliver on time, every time. This also makes us ideally positioned for export to Angola, and other markets in Africa.

Focus on quality
Our leading production technology and efficient quality assurance measures allow us to maintain international standards. We received our first ISO 9002 certification in 1992 and enjoy a high degree of trust in the retail and industrial sectors of the market. Our company has since been ISO 9001:2000 certified in 2003, and has recently been re-certified to ISO 9001:2008 in March 2010.

Our state of the art Pasta Factory has recently received its SANS 10330:2007 (HACCP) certification in March 2010, demonstrating Namib Mills’ commitment to food safety and thus ensuring a high degree of confidence in our products, by our consumers, retailers and buyers within the food industry.

Market-driven
We take pride in our ability to launch new products through market research, consumer based plans and successful local advertising campaigns. Over the years we have added to our stable, Pasta Polana, Pasta la Vita, Really Rice, Sugar King and Meme Mahangu.

We have taken the initiative in commercializing Namibia’s traditional millet crop, known as, ‘mahangu’, which is marketed in the local market under the brand name, “Meme Mahangu”, which is a purely Namibian brand.

Pasta is rapidly becoming one of our most popular retail brands. By investing in a state-of-the-art manufacturing plant, we were able to launch the extremely popular Pasta Polana range. In addition we have also launched the Pasta La Vita range, a high quality pasta range that is made from imported durum flour.

Committed to the Namibian economy
Namib Mills provides employment to more than 750 Namibians.

Development in the milling industry stimulates growth in a wide range of economic sectors. For instance, wheat and maize farmers have a guaranteed market for their crops and the baking industry thrives on our constant supply of innovative products. The transport sector benefits through us, making use of external transport suppliers in our distribution network.

Committed to Namibia’s Social Wellbeing
Namib Mills plays an active role in many programmes to fight hunger in Namibia, by means of supporting various welfare organisations.
