Business Operation

Expansion potential:

Extremely viable for a hotel/lodge, as well as additional residential properties and/or expansion of the existing tourist facility as well as the endangered animal breeding operations.

Competition / Market:

Although other tourist facilities in the area compete for time, they also assist in drawing additional tourist numbers to the area and are therefore seen as more complementary than competitive to the products we specifically offer. One very big plus factor however, which makes us unique and highly successful is that we are located in a tourist destination in its own right, ie people come to our area to visit the tourist facilities and we are therefore not competing with things such as the beach.
