Victoria Falls set for major transformation
Cabinet has approved a US$66.9 million integrated Tourism Park in the Masuwe Special Economic Zone at Victoria Falls, to be developed by the state-owned Mosi-oa-Tunya Development Company (MOTDC) and JR Goddard Contracting. The 272-hectare first phase — part of the larger 1,200-hectare SEZ — will deliver 8km of surfaced roads, 13km of water pipelines, sewerage, power substations and treatment works, alongside internationally branded hotels, medical and wellness facilities, championship golf courses and a UN Tourism-partnered culinary and hospitality school. MOTDC contributes 271.5 hectares (US$25.6m) as equity-in-kind for a 39 percent stake, with the consortium taking 61 percent; the adjacent Mosi-oa-Tunya Cricket Stadium, already 80 percent complete, will host matches at the 2027 ICC Men's Cricket World Cup.
