and strategic planning.The company believes that there is sufficient liquidity to sustain operations for the next 12 months and beyond.

Business outlook

A global economic rebound has become evident in recent times. In the case of Botswana, there was a 5.8% rise in real GDP during the year 2022, which, while positive, marked a decrease from the substantial 11.9% growth seen in 2021. Projections indicate that GDP expansion will persist, with anticipated growth rates of 3.8% and 4.4% forecasted for the years 2023 and 2024, respectively. This resurgence in economic performance is closely linked to the gradual return to normalcy as business operations restrictions related to the pandemic have been lifted. Anticipations suggest that the conducive environment will foster an enhanced performance for SBHL associates. It is essential to recognize that business conditions can change rapidly, therefore, our associates will continue to remain agile, responsive to market trends, and committed to sustainable practices to thrive in the evolving local and global business landscape in pursuit of optimising shareholder value. SBHL and its associates places strong emphasis on sustainability throughout operations, from sourcing ingredients, adopting eco-friendly practices and packaging materials to meet consumer demands and reduce on carbon
