Namibia has made great strides to position itself as a regional logistic hub in the Southern African region. Through the Walvis Bay Corridors, the port of Walvis Bay is linked to major cities and towns in SADC such as Gaborone, Johannesburg, Livingstone, Ndola, Lubumbashi, Santa Clara etc. Namibia in general and Walvis Bay in particular is also seen as a trade logistic alternative to South African and East-African trade channels that are experiencing challenges including multiple inefficient border crossings, worsening security, xenophobia and social instability.
