Anyone in business in Malawi has to be aware of this reality and ask him or herself: “Are you part of the solution or part of the problem?” If we are to survive, and thrive, our fate is unavoidably linked to the fate of Malawi. Simply put, commercial reality and environmental imperative mean that we must strive to be part of the solution. There is no long-term alternative. The mountains, National Parks, water sources and forests of our wondrous part of Africa are merely competing with other forms of land use. Tourism is the way forward for their long-term protection and sustainable survival.

Our Research shows that in Malawi, the average employee supports up to 8 dependents, thus the economic reach of a 50-bedded lodge can be widespread. At each of our lodges we pay substantial concession fees to the government. Our groundbreaking initiatives with Children in the Wilderness and HELP Malawi at Nanthomba School were started to try and give the attending children a better chance of living in balance with the environment and being the conservation leaders of tomorrow.
