Angola: Public official goes shopping with state money « Afronline ...
Kero hypermarket , probably the biggest in Angola, might be considered a model private investment , thanks to the way it has improved the range and quality of consumer goods available in the country. But Kero , which has been operating for a year in Luanda’s Nova Vida suburb, has also proved to be a model example of how Angola’s top state officials ignore the distinction between public and private property and turn themselves into the country’s top entrepreneurs.
In an interview with the weekly paper ‘O País’, Kero’s Brazilian director general, João Santos , revealed how much had been invested by a group of Angolan businessmen in partnership with Banco Privado Atlântico: “The US$35 million is a combination of private capital and resources freed up by the partnership with Atlântico.”
The hypermarket occupies a surface area of 7,500 square metres and a total area of 11,000 square metres. A second outlet has already opened in Condomínio Cajú, in the Talatona neighbourhood.
More recently, on December 10, the minister of Trade, Idalina Valente, formally inaugurated the third branch of the Kero chain, in the new state housing project of Kilamba , in Luanda. This is the largest social housing project in the country , and it was executed by the Office of National Reconstruction, led by General Manuel Hélder Vieira Dias “Kopelipa” . Currently, Kilamba is under the management of Sonangol, headed by Manuel Vicente.
Despite all the publicity that the opening of this large enterprise generated in the media and by means of billboards along the main routes in Luanda, there has been little mention of a company called Zahara, which owns the project .
