Blue Economy Sourcing Delegation to Durban & KwaZulu-Natal

The proposed Blue Economy Sourcing Delegation to Durban and KwaZulu-Natal (22–28 March 2026) is a targeted business-focused initiative led by AHK Southern Africa to connect German companies with high-potential South African suppliers, partners, and innovation ecosystems across key marine sectors including fisheries and aquaculture, boatbuilding, marine equipment, biomaterials, circular economy solutions, and coastal tourism. Anchored around the Ocean Innovation Africa Conference and complemented by curated B2B matchmaking, site visits, and roundtables, the delegation is designed to accelerate concrete sourcing and cooperation opportunities by providing direct market access, structured business meetings, and exposure to production, logistics, and innovation clusters in one of Africa’s most strategically important blue-economy hubs.
