Across procurement, industry, technology, food, investment and hospitality, Kloten Holding is developing local capabilities while creating connections between Angola and global markets.
In just a few years, Kloten Holding has grown into a diversified Angolan group, with activities spanning procurement, industry, technology, food, investment and hospitality. At the heart of its development is an ambition: to establish companies that can operate to global standards while creating solutions that respond to local needs.
For Executive President and CEO Muanga Louis Bernardo Numbimi, the operations are not separate ventures, but part of a connected structure, with each company addressing a market need. “We focus on establishing companies here in Angola with an international standard,” he says. “These are completely different sectors, but they bring relevant solutions to our ecosystem.” Procurement provides one example. Kloten entered Angola’s oil and gas supply chain only a few years ago, navigating the requirements and barriers to entry of one of the country’s most competitive sectors. Today, the business works with major operators, reinforcing the group’s focus on organization, responsiveness and the capabilities needed to become a credible local partner.
That experience is also shaping Kloten’s reach abroad. The group has established an office in Dubai, creating what Numbimi describes as “a big bridge” between Angola and the United Arab Emirates. The objective remains rooted at home: to attract external expertise and investment while strengthening the capacity and credibility of companies established locally. “The main focus here is to attract the attention of international partners,” Numbimi explains. Through its presence in Dubai, Kloten aims to forge commercial relationships with companies accustomed to global markets, while keeping its operational focus and commitment in Angola.
Diversification is another part of this vision. Kloten’s portfolio now extends into hospitality through Signature Meet & Greet, a premium airport hospitality and assistance concept designed to elevate the passenger experience in Angola. Signature reflects Kloten’s approach to innovation: identifying proven concepts, adapting them to the local market and creating services capable of meeting the expectations of global travelers. It represents a new dimension of the group’s portfolio, bringing together hospitality, service excellence and a sophisticated airport experience.
“Come to Angola, invest in Angola and feel at home in Angola.”
For Kloten, growth is about more than business expansion. The group aims to contribute through employment, skills development, stronger supply chains and digital transformation, while improving its organization and corporate governance. “Besides generating profit, what we try to do is positively impact Angolans today and tomorrow,” Numbimi says. Looking ahead, Kloten aims to develop companies capable of gaining recognition beyond the country while remaining connected to the market in which they were built. For Numbimi, credible domestic enterprises can become valuable counterparts for investors seeking opportunities in Angola.
For Kloten Holding, the next stage is about turning those foundations into greater reach: developing companies at home that can compete globally, forge commercial relationships and create opportunities across wider markets.
