well trained workers, like greetings, worker’s compromise, consideration and
respect to all our customers.

OBJECTIVES
• To promote tourism and conservation of the cultural heritage
within the village as it provides good image.
• To create skills and knowledge of utilizing natural resources within
a conserved area.
• To build Botswana culture based on our traditional values, beliefs
and contemporary aspects that respect the dignity and creativity
of the indigenous people.
• Cultural institutions and traditions as a heritage to protect, project
and transform for prosperity.
• Stimulate the growth of all development professions such as
architecture, town planning, civil engineering and others in order
to enhance traditional values in the living environment in
Botswana.

ABOUT THE PROJECT
• This an innovative idea offering tourists a cultural, educational, exciting
and real experience, while simultaneously rejuvenating a culture rich in
knowledge about the balance between man and nature.
• The Eden View Gardens project is a conservation project that embodies
the balance of agriculture, hospitality and social investment. We intend to
construct and operate an agri-tourism business whose main intention will
be the preservation of the environment, to prevent degradation, preserve
the ecological integrity and produce vegetables in the most
environmentally friendly and natural way. In order to teach and share this
knowledge, we will also hold cultural festivals, trade in African artifacts,
host nature conferences, serve international and local cuisines, serve
beverages, invite our guests to participate in our farming activities,
interact with the community, host weddings in our gardens, kiddies
parties, game & safari drives, historical sites tours etc.

WHAT IS EDEN VIEW
GARDENS?
The word Eden means "fruitful, well-
watered.“
Another interpretation associates the
name with "pleasure." The above
definition clearly captures the theme of
our project through which we intend to
provide our visitors with an exciting
getaway experience that they shall forever
cherish. All you have to do is come and
enjoy your stay.

PROJECT
LOCATION
Our project is located in Ramotswa, Botswana, a country in Southern
Africa that has an impeccable record of security, political &
economical stability so much it has been, and still is, crowned as the
“Jewel of Africa.”
Prince Harry also loves Botswana. In fact, this is the country where he
sourced the diamond for his wife Meghan Markle’s engagement ring.
The couple enjoys visiting the camps in the African
country. Apparently Prince Harry fell in love with the country after his
father took he and Prince William on a trip here after Princess Diana,
their mother, died. He is alleged to have stated that, “I am incredibly
fortunate to be able to call it my second home.” This is proof that
Botswana has very a good reputation, climate and the general
attitude of its inhabitants is genuinely inviting. You feel welcome and
at home when you are here. The rich history, vast and naturally
preserved tracts of wild vegetation, the varied and diverse multitudes
of wildlife are the reason we anticipate, expect and look forward to
your arrival here.

Botswana is considered the Jewel of Africa, it is because we have been led by a reputable government elected
democratically every 5 years since its Independence from Britain in 1966. Government's priority include among others,
the equitable distribution and prudent management of our natural resources, steadfast and resolute intent to root out
corruption as well as sound economic management policies that ensure a sustainable development, growth and
management of our country. The biggest diamond mine by value in the world is in Botswana, it is called Jwaneng Mine.
Botswana's magnificent Okavango Delta, is the only inland delta in the whole world, and home to various wildlife
species from birds, herbivores, carnivores, fishery, reptiles etc... We have lions, leopards, zebras, monkeys, vultures,
hippos, rhinos, elephants, you name it. You can rest assured that your investments will be in a safe hands, free from
wars, terrorism and other sorts of corruption.

WHY CROW-FUNDING
• We see this project as a social investment and corporate social
responsibility on our part. And this is the main reason the
board has decided to pursue crowd funding as the main
source of our support. Most of the local projects similar to
ours, rely on donations to start, however they end winding
down as they can't sustain themselves eventually.
• With our model, the project has been designed such that it will
be able to operate and generate sufficient operational income.
We are fully confident that once we have fully constructed &
furnished Eden View Gardens, we will have a fully fledged self
sustaining business whose backers and supporters shall forever
cherish and take pride in, for many generations to come. This
is also an opportunity to come and experience the beauty of
Africa; the most natural environments and spectacular scenes
you have never seen.

PROJECT DESIGN
• As can be seen in the 3D models, our project will consist of
5 chalets for accommodation, a swimming pool, an open
garden for parties and other open space events, a
conference room, a curio shop, restaurant, housed in the
main reception area and a large well spaced thatched
loobo, to host events during the sunny days, i.e. Weddings,
Parties and Meetings. There will be free WIFI, room service
and other important amenities for our guests to feel at
home.
• The site is fully accessible by tarred road, has potable
water, electrified and it is only 44 km (28 miles) from
our international airport. Our aim is to use solar
panel as the source of our energy once we can
afford them to help cut down on the carbon
footprint, remember our aim is to conserve and
preserve the environment.

PROJECT COMPONENTS
• Accommodation: Five (5) grass thatched rooms for overnight accommodation will
be constructed.
• Wedding Loobo: Fully thatched open building catering for 150-250 people. To be
used for special occasions such as product launches, business meetings, conferences,
trade shows, sports events, banquets, wedding receptions, meetings, trainings, retreats,
birthdays, anniversaries, graduations, gala dinners, charity fundraisers, Christmas
parties, holidays, company picnics and private parties with secure parking.
• Restaurant: This will provide meals such as ala carte menu, grills, international cuisine,
sea food menu, buffet: breakfast, lunch and dinner, conservatory: light snacks.
Traditional menu such as dikgobe, thophi, serobe, logala, phane, and bogobe jwa
lerotse are some of the delicious food of the restaurant. This will also serve beverages
of different tastes to guests at affordable prices.
• Swimming Pool: Will help our guests to cool themselves during hot weather
conditions.
• Reception: This shall serve as the front office where arrivals and departures are
registered

• Curio Shop: This will specialize in displaying Batswana’s indigenous Art and
craft (e.g. of Balete, Basarwa, Baherero, Bayei, Bakalanga, Bambukushu etc. this is to
show case that we still hold our past culture and history in high-esteem and respect.
• Kgotla: A traditional Tswana ward made from wood logs will be
constructed near the entrance. Fire will be set in the evenings and it is where our
way of receiving visitors will be done. Folk tales or mainane together with proverbs will
be used as part of the evening entertainment in this arena.
• Lawn Area: A site that caters for people who prefer camping will be set aside.
There will be the ablution blocks for easy housekeeping. At least two typical Tswana
wells with a winch will be dug in the camp. Traditional water through will include a
typical well of our historical heritage. This area will also be used for open space public
events.
• Other Services: The following services will be provided by the project to top up the
day to day running of the venture: typing, photocopying, internet, faxes. Newspapers
and magazines sales as another way to keep our customers well informed of the
around the globe.

IMPLEMENTATION PLAN
• Once we have reached our goal through our campaign, we will take 2-3
months to construct and furnish our project, and then take a further 3
months to welcome our guests from the campaign.
• Secondly, we welcome investors willing to directly invest and become
shareholders, those who are interested may express their intent by
contacting us through our dedicated investor email:

theatre-style and approximately 1000 people for a
sit down dinner. The space can accommodate
about 1800 for a standing reception. There will be
a fully-equipped kitchen to serve our guests on a
daily basis. For a larger crowd, we will consider in
house catering and/or out-sourcing the service.
Rental fees will vary depending on size of group,
date and time, and set up.

ACTIVITIES
Our guests will be able to tour the nearby attractions like hills, bird
sanctuaries, game parks and historical sites. All of these sites are
accessible either via cycling, quad bikes, off road vehicles, and
some on foot. A local tour guide will be assigned to guests to
ensure a smooth and pleasurable experience.

The activities will include:

the fire circle and will show guests the various types of dances and their purposes (i.e. music dance, initiation, rite of
passage, etc.)

Guides will explain the medicinal and nutritional uses of various roots, leaves, fruits, etc.

to the next. Stories and fables will be told to tourists around the camp fire and translated into English by the host.

ostrich, as well as berries, fruits and teas from the bush. Meat will be prepared over an open fire before the guests.

encourages investments in tourism. Hence our
design and architectural drawings were
approved without any problems. Letters of
support have been written by authorities to
confirm their support for our project. Scanned
copies of the documents referred to above, have
been uploaded to our website under the project
information tab for easy reference by our
supporters. Our government's other priority area
is the promotion of tourism, and a lot of funds
have been invested to promote such by the
government.

ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT AND
MITIGATION MEASURES
All efforts possible will be made to ensure the ecological
integrity of the site and that the area as a whole will not
be compromised by the business activities. Buildings will
be constructed taking into account the natural wind,
shade, gravity, water sources and vegetation of the area.
During construction, local labour and materials will be
used as much as possible. Builders’ waste will be collected
immediately by labourers. Materials will be stored in
locations that will become a building or part of a building.
Transport to and from the site will be minimized and will
use predetermined circulation routes to reduce disruption
from movement of materials. Transport vehicles will be
required to use four wheel drive and to drive responsible,
staying on these designated track to minimize damage to
the surrounding vegetation.

MARKET
• Marketing strategies will be put in place to cater for the South-East District region.
• The lack of Agro-tourism Cultural Village projects in Ramotswa is an indicator for the
potential high demand for our product. The village does not have similar projects which
boost our tourism sector to promote education & understanding based on culture, Arts and
Conservation of Natural Resources.
• There will be less competition in the region due to lack of places for cultural events and other
activities which will be boosting the tourism sector.
• The market of the proposed area is determined by the definition and purpose of sustainable
developments provided on the site, tourist attractions and locals willing to view the climax of
the village above the hills’ aesthetic views.

MAIN FINANCIAL
INDICATORS
• The total required capital for the construction
and successful operation of this project is
US$480,000.
• With Occupancy/Sales Rates estimated at
about 45%, we have projected that our Annual
Sales Totals will be US$410 580, US$451 638
and US$496 801 for Year 1, Year 2 and Year 3
respectively.
• This translates to Net Profits after Tax of US$96,
492, US$156, 749 and US$175, 554 for Year 1,
Year 2 and Year 3 respectively.

SUCCESS FACTORS
There is potential growth for our entity because of the following reasons:
• Botswana is one of the best performing economies of Africa. It does not have foreign
exchange controls and it is a low tax regime. These are strong general reasons motivating
investors to invest in Botswana.
• Botswana borders South Africa, a channel and conduit to do business with rest of Africa.
Botswana is a regional hub, and a regional financial services power house. The Government
lays emphasis on export promotion. These are strong marketing reasons to invest in Botswana.
• Botswana has a tradition to welcome foreigners and foreign investment. Besides Botswana is
politically a very stable country. Botswana's investor friendliness and political stability attract
investors to live peacefully in Botswana.
• Botswana Innovation Hub, power generation, transnational transport corridor network, tourism
sector and consulting/professional services sector offer good opportunities to invest in
Botswana.
