Construction & Infrastructure

Northwestern Province is experiencing rapid urban and economic expansion, creating a strong demand for modern infrastructure, housing, transport, and utilities. As mining, agriculture, and trade continue to grow, the province offers vast opportunities in road construction, housing estates, industrial parks, energy systems, and public facilities. Investors can play a central role in shaping the region’s transformation into a well-connected, industrialized, and inclusive economy. The Construction & Infrastructure initiative, coordinated by the Northwestern Chamber of Commerce & Industry (NWCCI), supports investors in identifying, planning, and implementing infrastructure projects across the province. Working closely with district councils and government agencies, the Chamber facilitates partnerships that ensure efficient delivery, sustainability, and long-term impact.

Transport & Road Infrastructure

Strategic road corridors linking Solwezi, Chavuma, Kipushi, and Jimbe are being prioritized for upgrade under the Lobito Corridor. Investors can engage in road construction, bridge works, and logistics infrastructure to support trade and industrial access throughout the province.

Housing & Real Estate Development

Urban growth in Solwezi, Kalumbila, and Mwinilunga has increased demand for residential, commercial, and industrial housing. Investors can develop affordable housing projects, office complexes, and modern real estate facilities that meet the needs of a growing workforce and business community.

Industrial Parks & Warehousing

The development of industrial yards and logistics parks offers opportunities for construction firms, suppliers, and infrastructure financiers. These facilities support agro-processing, mining, and manufacturing while promoting local job creation and SME participation.

Energy & Utility Infrastructure

Investments are encouraged in water supply systems, mini-grids, renewable energy plants, and waste management facilities. These projects improve living standards and support industrial productivity while promoting environmental sustainability.
