Who We Are
Who is Etosha Capital
Etosha Capital, founded by Rudo Winckler in 2017, specializes in direct investments in foreign territories, with a particular emphasis on the Scandinavian real estate market. We assist both local and international investors in managing investment risks and navigating the complexities of the foreign direct investment market. Our primary focus in recent years has been on direct investments in the retail property market in Denmark.
Etosha Capital has successfully acquired and developed two prime retail properties in Denmark. The first centre is located in Frederiksvaerk, a 45-minute drive from Copenhagen, while the second centre is situated in Skive, approximately four and a half hours from Copenhagen.
We have chosen to concentrate on two distinct retail models:
- Retail properties with refurbishment opportunities, aimed at enhancing property yield through value engineering processes, conducted in collaboration with the local community and retailers.
- Retail properties with limited or no improvement required.
These retail shopping centres are typically located in urban and peri- urban areas, focusing on convenience and community shopping.
We effectively manage and mitigate the inherent risks associated with foreign direct investments and different real estate asset classes. Our approach involves leveraging our local investment and real estate expertise, in partnership with Scandinavian in-country partners who have an outstanding track record in real estate asset management and turnaround strategies, both internationally and within Europe, specifically in Scandinavia.
Through our extensive network of local and in-country property, legal, and financial experts, we possess a deep understanding of the market and investors’ needs. This allows us to provide a comprehensive tailored investment opportunity to both local South African and international investors.
Furthermore, we are committed to promoting growth in value through continuous improvements to our existing portfolio of retail assets and an ongoing effort to expand into new markets and territories.
