Founded Ekuja Hunting Safaris, known as one of the most successful and renowned hunting and touristic operators in Namibia.
Ekuja Hunting Safaris also conduct hunts and safaris throughout Botswana and South Africa.
In 2020, DB Swanepoel started a farming operation where we would rent farms and stock them with cattle.
Today, 5 years later, I am renting 25 000 hectares and have about 2000 head of cattle that I speculate with.
Middle of 2023, I bought 50% shares at Grasta Karibib Engen.
Up to today we have added the restaurant and a biltong shop to the service station.
We also got a bulk fuel point restarted at the service station and turned the service station into a profitable business.
