Ownership The Reserve is currently owned by a group of about 100 passionate, bush-loving shareholders, principally from Europe, USA and South Africa, who collectively hold 244 shares of the 500 shares in the company. These shares were sold during the first phase of development from 2006 to late 2009 Share sales were stopped during 2010 to re-adjust the business plan to the economic climate as we struggled financially and with the view to launch the second phase offer for another 100 shares on 1 March 2011. Generally shares are offered in lots of 20 at a time at a given price, and then after each lot is sold, the price of the next lot offered increases to reflect lower risk to subsequent buyers The second phase offer launched at $135,000 per share on 1 March 2011 One share (Gold membership) would give you access to any of the shareholder lodges as often per year as you can come out and five shares (Diamond membership) gives you the option to build your own lodge on the Limpopo River Bank. |
River Camp So far River Camp with 7 shareholder lodges are operational and you can have a look at the videos and pictures on www.limpopo-lipadi.org |
The goal is to keep the human footprint as low as possible and only to expand as it is needed by shareholders. We are looking to complete Island lodge (12 x 1 bedroom chalets) and one tented camp over the next two years, as shares are sold and the full budget for this development is raised |
