RTG Performance Remains Positive Amidst Ongoing Economic Challenges

Zimbabwe’s Rainbow Tourism Group (RTG) is defying the odds, reporting a 75% revenue increase in the first five months of 2024. This impressive performance comes despite ongoing economic challenges in the country.

Hotels across the RTG chain averaged a 60% occupancy rate, exceeding industry standards. This translates to a 128% surge in Revenue Per Available Room (RevPAR), reaching US$58.

The group attributes its success to strategic investments in property refurbishment totaling US$21 million since 2018.

RTG CEO Tendayi Madziwanyika highlighted the company’s resilience at the recent annual general meeting. He pointed to their ability to adapt, optimize efficiency, and prioritize exceptional customer experiences as key factors in their positive performance.

Despite global economic headwinds, including inflation, supply chain issues, and geopolitical tensions, RTG’s hotels, resorts, and tourism ventures continue to thrive.
