Status Hi-Tech, a leading Zambian PPE and firefighting equipment supplier with operations across major industrial hubs and a DRC subsidiary, seeks USD 3 million (minority stake) to expand into manufacturing, wholesaling, and export markets.<\/p>\n

Funds will support USD 1million capex and USD 2 million working capital. With strong demand and 25%+ net profit margins, the company aims to scale its high-growth operations, especially in Chingola and Solwezi. Umlimi Trading and OTAGO plan a recycled-biomass char-briquette plant to replace unsustainable charcoal, support farmers, and reduce deforestation.<\/p>\n

The project seeks USD150,000 (equity\/debt) for equipment and capacity building. With 40% EBITDA, strong local demand, and production scaling to 720\u20131,440 tonnes\/year (20% exports), the factory can be operational within six months.<\/p>\n
