PRESIDENT Emmerson Mnangagwa Monday praised Hyatt Regency for selecting Zimbabwe as an investment destination on the back of calls for other international investors to take a cue from such steps.
Hyatt Hotels Corporation opened doors to clients this week opening Hyatt Regency Harare , marking a significant milestone in the hospitality landscape of the country.
"In this regard, the Tourism and Hospitality industry is a critical cog in our national development agenda, being the third largest contributor to the national GDP. A comprehensive Tourism and Hospitality Industry Growth Strategy is being implemented, which recognises both domestic and international tourism as key drivers to the growth and expansion of the sub-sector," he said.
He challenged the Tourism sector to continue being innovative, develop new products and have a highly trained and efficient workforce, pegged against global best practices, supported by the requisite modern physical infrastructure. He challenged the international investor community to follow suit and tap into the vast opportunities in the country's abundant opportunities across the economic sectors.
